⚠️ Heads-up! We have a new UI and we’re updating our docs. Your Top Bar will look like you see below.
Step 1 - Double-click a video
Or click “Edit Content”.
Step 2 - Upload a video
Add from link
The link expected here is for a video file that is hosted on a web server, like this: www.website.com/archives/videos/file.mp4
Links from video services like YouTube and Vimeo will not work with this option. See the rest of this article to learn how to add such videos.
Step 3 - Set configuration
Select a custom poster image
Options
Start play on visible
Loop
Mute
Show Video controls
Lazy load
Play/pause on hover
No tracking
YouTube
Videos coming from popular video services, such as YouTube, have their dedicated elements in Vev. You’ll easily recognize such elements when you spot them. They all operate similarly but can have different configuration options.
Vimeo
Edit the configurations by hovering the Vimeo component's top-left corner and clicking the 'Edit content' button to open the 'Properties' panel on the right side of the editor as highlighted in the image below.
