# Embed Video Shortcode Doesn't Work

 * Can someone tell me why this shortcode doesn’t work in WP 4.1?
 * `[vimeo 115318845 w=624&h=352}`
 * All I get is the code itself when I test the page, after clicking the Update 
   button. Does it matter if you paste your code into the “visual” window rather
   than the “text” window? (In either case, the text looks the same.)
 * And for that matter, why doesn’t adding CSS work to center this embedded video?
 * `<div text-align="center">[vimeo 115318845 w=624&h=352}</div>`
 * Thank you!
