 * I’m using the Vimeo sidebar widget for videos. I need to insert the video ID 
   but cannot find it. I thought it was at the end of the embed link for a video
   or at least YouTube videos. Where do I find this to post the vid?

 * Admin/Media Library. Find the video you want to insert. Place your cursor over
   the title and examine the web address being displayed in the bottom left of your
   web browser. It should end with `&attachment_id=xxx`.
 * The xxx number is that video’s id.
