Why show your Vimeo videos in a gallery?

Embedding videos one by one gets messy and has to be updated by hand. A Vimeo gallery puts your best work in one tidy place and keeps itself up to date when you upload something new. It is especially useful for:

  • Filmmakers, videographers and agencies showing a video portfolio
  • Course creators and teachers sharing lessons or previews in order
  • Businesses showing product demos, testimonials and event recaps
  • Churches, schools and clubs sharing recorded events

Good to know: Autoplay in the Playlist layout depends on the visitor’s browser, since many browsers limit autoplay until the visitor interacts with the page. If your videos are on YouTube, TikTok or several platforms, the Video Gallery widget can mix sources in one gallery.

How to add the Vimeo Gallery widget to your website

After you save the widget, Elfsight gives you a short embed code. Paste it into a custom HTML or embed block where you want the gallery to show. It works on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow, Google Sites and any other website that accepts custom HTML. For step-by-step instructions for each platform, see our guide on how to add embed code to any website builder.

Good places for a Vimeo gallery are your portfolio or work page, a course or resources page, and your homepage below the main banner.

How to manage your Vimeo Gallery widget

Log in to your Elfsight dashboard to edit your widget at any time. Changes go live automatically, so you don’t need to replace the embed code on your website. From the dashboard you can also create more widgets, copy the embed code again and see how many views your widget has used this month.
