Is there already a widget that allows Vimeography “galleries” to display properly?
I have tried with the SiteOrigin Editor, The gallery appears showing only the text below the space where the video thumbnails should be visible. Clicking the blank spaces starts the videos playing as expected. But there are no thumbnails showing.
If there is no widget available, are there any plans to develop one in the near future?

Hi Douglas,
Preface: No, we don’t have a dedicated Vimeo gallery widget at this time. There are currently no plans on creating one but I won’t rule it out.
I’m personally not familiar with setting up Vimeo Galleries so please excuse my unfamiliarity on the subject. In theory, any plugin that allows for this should work. So something like this plugin should be able to do what you’re after the official solution doesn’t work for you. With that said, I would be more than happy to take a look at your current setup to see if this is something we can resolve without the need for a plugin. Do you have a public URL where we can take a look at what’s going on?
Thank you for the quick reply Alex
The plugin you sent me to look at is Vimeography. That is the one I am already using.
The problem is that the thumbnails that usually show, do not show when I have placed the Vimeography shortcode in a text widget.
I do not have a public URL, but I will set something up so that you can see the difference when using Page Builder and when not. May be tomorrow before I have time.

Hi Douglas,
I thought so (it was oddly specific of a name), but I wasn’t sure. To clarify, have you tried disabling the Automatically add paragraphs setting? (it’s below the text field) Sometimes that setting can cause issues with shortcodes.
Let me know when you’ve set up the pages mate.
That did it Alex
Turning off “Automatically add paragraphs” fixed the thumbnail problem.
Thank you.
I will be updating to the paid version later this week.
Most likely on Saturday.

Hi Douglas,
Awesome! :)
By the way, I love the name of your company – very clever!
Hello Alex,
I have just bought the Business packet.
Likely to be too advanced for me, but my wife is also using PageBuilder on her site, so with use up to 5 sites, we are covered.
One question:
Do we install and activate the SiteOrigin Premium without doing anything with the PageBuilder that is already installed?
I know that some plugins require free versions should be deactivated first.
Wow,
It looks like I have purchased the Premium pack 2 times!
Please check it out and if I have sent it twice, credit the extra one back to me.
Terrible feeling just now – I am Scottish! :-) Wow, paying twice……
Hi Douglas,
Awesome! Not so awesome about the double purchase though! I’ll send a message to Andrew about this and he’ll cancel the extra license asap.
Correct. SiteOrigin Premium extends our existing plugins and themes but doesn’t replace them. In other words, don’t uninstall any of our plugins just because SiteOrigin Premium is installed, or they won’t work. Does that make sense?
By the way, as you’re a premium user, you’re entitled to priority email support. If you would like to make use of that, please follow the instructions found on your Page: Dashboard (please refer to the support tab). Please reference this thread and include your SiteOrigin order key in the email.
Thank you Alex,
I’ll be checking out everything tomorrow.
I guess I will be using the priority email support a few times in the beginning.
Hopefully I will get into the swing of things sooner than later.
Regards
Douglas
