How to add Vimeo Feed to a Publii plugin

Embed Vimeo Feed on Publii

01

Create a Vimeo Feed website for Publii on Common Ninja

First, create a Publii Vimeo Feed website on Common Ninja. On the websites catalog, find the Vimeo Feed and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Vimeo Feed website

When you're done creating the Vimeo Feed website, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Vimeo Feed Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Vimeo Feed website to your Publii plugin, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the website embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Publii plugin.

04

Paste the code to your Publii website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Publii plugin editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Publii’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Vimeo Feed Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Vimeo Feed website on your Publii plugin.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Vimeo Feed website on your Publii website. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Publii plugin’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Vimeo Feed website to your Publii plugin. You can do this by putting it straight into your Publii plugin's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Vimeo Feed widget when you publish videos on Vimeo and want visitors to see your latest work without leaving your site. A live feed keeps your video section current, highlights new uploads, and helps people browse your library in a structured way. This is ideal for filmmakers, agencies, educators, and brands that value production quality and use Vimeo as a main host. Embedding the feed improves discovery because users can scan thumbnails and titles quickly, then play the videos directly in context. By keeping viewers on your domain, you can frame videos with related text, calls to action, or portfolios, increasing engagement and making your site feel like a real media hub.
