How can I hide the video controls for a Vimeo video on my Webflow site?

To hide the video controls for a Vimeo video on your Webflow site, you need to adjust the Vimeo embed settings and update the embed code on your site. Here’s how you can do it:

​

1. Modify Vimeo Embed Settings

• Log in to your Vimeo account and go to the video you wish to embed.
• Click on the “Settings” or “Advanced” button for the video.
• Navigate to the “Embed” tab.
• Uncheck the option labeled “Show Controls” or similar wording, ensuring that the controls are disabled in the video settings.

​

2. Update Vimeo Embed Code

• Copy the embed code for the Vimeo video you want to use.
• Look for the part of the code containing parameters (e.g., after the URL, usually following a question mark).
• Add or edit the parameter to ensure it reads controls=0.
• For example: If your embed URL looks like this: https://player.vimeo.com/video/123456789?autoplay=1, modify it to include controls=0: https://player.vimeo.com/video/123456789?autoplay=1&controls=0.

​

3. Implement Embed Code in Webflow

• Go to your Webflow project and navigate to the page where you want to place the video.
• Drag and drop an Embed element from the Add Panel into your page.
• Paste the modified Vimeo embed code into the Embed Code section, ensuring all parameters are correctly set to disable controls.
• Confirm by saving and publishing your changes.

​

Summary

By accessing the Vimeo settings and configuring the embed code appropriately, you can hide the video controls for a Vimeo video on your Webflow site. Ensure parameters are accurately adjusted to reflect controls=0 in the embed link.
