Is there a way I can embed a Vimeo video using their iframe embed code?

When using OneBox, it fails because of the video’s privacy settings in Vimeo. I have it configured to be hidden, but allow embedding on my domain. OneBox only seems to work if the video is public.

Thanks!

You could try whitelisting vimeo for iframes using the whitelist-iframe plugin:

> [@Supporting iframe embeds from different domains?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/supporting-iframe-embeds-from-different-domains/30930/2):

> iframes can now be whitelisted through the allowed\_iframes Site Setting. It accepts a list of iframe src domain prefixes that discourse can safely allow in posts. The whitelist-iframe plugin is no longer required. What I have done is make a plugin that calls the Discourse.Markdown.whiteListIframe function. The plugin is very simple, The hard part is that you have to supply regular expressions to match any URLs you want to white-list. The code is here.
