Error in showing vimeo in video block

Kirby 3 Solved ✅
1

Hello Kirby people!
I get an error while inserting a vimeo link in a video block:

Block error: “Invalid Vimeo source” in block type: “video”

I didn’t change the video.yml nor the video.php.
It’s not the first time that I use the video block with vimeo - but this is the first time I experience this error. I tried all variations of changing the vimeo url but nothing helps. youtube works BTW.

Does anyone have any idea whats going on?
Thanks a lot!

What is your Kirby version?

this is what’s written in the composer json:

"require": {
        "php": ">=7.3.0 <8.1.0",
        "getkirby/cms": "^3.5"
    },

I can’t reproduce the issue on 3.5.8 with any Vimeo url. Could you post your tried vimeo urls please?

Ok I’m sorry - now I noticed that for some reason I copied a wrong url
the url that gives error is this:

https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/720953479

I understand it should be without the ‘/manage/videos’ - but this URL works in a different site I built. so that what caused the confusion.

Sorry about the fault alert and thanks a lot for the help!

Yes this URL doesn’t work on 3.5.x but fixed in 3.6.x. I’m pretty sure that Kirby version of the site working properly is 3.6.x. You can upgrade Kirby version to 3.6 to solve this issue.
