# Vimeo embed code has stopped working

 * I have had a WordPress site for about a year, and embeds have always worked very
   simply – by copying and pasting the URL of the video. Suddenly this has stopped
   working. The page will just display the URL code and not the video embed. I have
   tried all the suggestions on the Forums, such as using the HTML tab instead of
   the visual, but haven’t been able to find a solution. It is getting rather frustrating,
   I would be very grateful for any help!
 * This is my WordPress site, and this is the video I am trying to embed:

 * Vimeo doesn’t always support embedding over https 😉 No worries.

 * I’m having trouble getting videos to show up on my posts, all of a sudden.
    Below
   is an embed code from msnbc news post I’m trying to get to show up right now.
   I’ve tried using Press This, embedding directly from the site, copying embed 
   code & pasting into HTML and View. I get an image with a little ‘f’ in the center
   in editing (as before when videos posted fine), however once posted, the image
   disappears and no video. Any advice?
