Add a video component to a page

Learn how to add a container to the page

  • Once you have added the container to the page (a video is usually in a one-column container, but can be added to a two-column container. It will depend on the dimension of the image used and space on the page), select 'Video' from the list of components
  • Click 'select'.

  • Find the video component you wish to add to the page from the list in the content tree
  • Select the video component
  • Click 'OK' in the bottom right corner
  • If the video lives in a one-column container:
    • Scroll to the checkbox for 'PlayInPage' and click to check it in the 'Control Properties' box. This means the video will play in the window of the page and not pop out
    • Click 'OK'.
  • If the video lives in a two-column container:
    • No changes need to happen in the 'Control Properties' box, so click 'OK'. The video will pop out to play on the page, but this view is larger than if it played within the window of the container on the page.
