Pinning Videos to Reorder

One of the easiest methods to change the order of your videos is by pinning them. Pinned videos will appear at the top of your video list, allowing you to highlight your best or most recent content. Here’s how to pin and reorder videos:

  1. Navigate to your Vimeo profile or home page.
  2. Locate the video you want to pin and click on the pin icon (looks like a thumbtack) on the video thumbnail.
  3. The pinned video will now appear at the top of your video list.
  4. To reorder pinned videos, simply click and drag them to your desired position.[1]

You can pin as many videos as you like and rearrange them by dragging and dropping. This method is particularly useful if you want to showcase your best work or promote specific videos for marketing purposes.[1]

Filtering and Sorting Videos

Vimeo also allows you to filter and sort your videos based on various criteria, such as date, alphabetical order, plays, likes, comments, or duration. This can be helpful if you want to quickly find and rearrange your videos based on specific metrics. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Log in to your Vimeo account and navigate to the “My Videos” section.
  2. Click on the filter or sort option you prefer (e.g., date, alphabetical, plays, likes, comments, or duration).[1]
  3. Your videos will be rearranged according to the selected filter or sort option.

Using Vimeography Pro (Third-Party Plugin)

  1. Visit your Vimeography Pro gallery editor page and select “use my sort from Vimeo” under the Vimeography Pro tab.
  2. Go to your Vimeo account and navigate to the collection you’re using as the source for your Vimeography Pro gallery.
  3. Click on the gear icon at the top right of your collection thumbnail to access the settings page.
  4. In the settings, select “Custom (Drag and Drop)” from the sort dropdown menu.
  5. Rearrange your videos by dragging and dropping the thumbnails into your desired order.
  6. Refresh your Vimeography gallery to apply the changes.[3]

By following these steps, you can easily rearrange and change the order of your videos on Vimeo, ensuring that your content is organized and presented in the most effective way possible.[1][2][3]
