Ninja Forms Vimeo Uploader is an official WordPress extension that integrates video uploads directly to Vimeo from forms created with Ninja Forms. It is designed for websites that need to receive audiovisual content from clients, students, collaborators, or visitors without having to share Vimeo account credentials or manage external links manually.
The extension adds special fields to the Ninja Forms form builder: a video title field, a description field, and a drag-and-drop zone (dropzone) where users can attach their video files. Once the form is submitted, the video is automatically transferred to your Vimeo account via the official API, without the need to store heavy files on your WordPress server.
Among its most notable features are the ability to configure the final title and description of the video before it is stored on Vimeo, set a minimum user role to allow uploads (from guests to administrators), define the default privacy of each uploaded video, and automatically add videos to a Vimeo collection, group, or showcase. It also allows displaying the link of the uploaded video on the form success page using a shortcode or merge tag, and offers a hook for developers who need to access the video URL after submission.
Configuration is simple: you only need to obtain an access token from the Vimeography app, paste it into the Ninja Forms settings, and connect your account. The plugin works with Ninja Forms conditional logic, allowing you to show video upload fields only when certain conditions are met, creating dynamic and intelligent forms.
This extension is ideal for video contests, client portfolios, educational platforms that receive video assignments, video testimonial sites, or any project that needs to collect audiovisual content in an organized, secure, and professional way, leveraging all of Vimeo's processing and playback infrastructure.
