Installation (via Contao Manager)

Option A (recommended): publish on Packagist

1. Push this repository to GitHub.
2. Create a release tag, e.g. 1.0.0.
3. Submit the repository to Packagist and enable GitHub webhook.
4. In Contao Manager: install steirischeonline/vimeo-player-advanced.

Option B: install directly from GitHub (without Packagist)

Add a VCS repository to your project composer.json:

{
  "repositories": [
    {
      "type": "vcs",
      "url": "https://github.com/steirischeonline/vimeo-player-advanced"
    }
  ]
}

Then require the package:

composer require steirischeonline/vimeo-player-advanced:^1.0

Or if you have no release tag yet:

composer require steirischeonline/vimeo-player-advanced:dev-main

Run the Contao database update afterwards.

Usage

In Contao backend: Content → New element → Media → Vimeo Advanced.

Notes

Browser-side download prevention is best-effort only. Blocking right-click and overlays can deter casual users, but cannot prevent extraction via developer tools or screen recording.
