Add a video to the Event Details section
Add a video to your event page
- Embed YouTube or video from another video-sharing site
- Include promo videos or footage of keynote speakers
- Attendees know what to expect at your event
In order to add video to the Event Details section, you first need to upload a video file to a video-hosting site--like YouTube--or else choose a video already uploaded to that site.
Then select and copy the old embed code--often accessed via a button that looks like <embed>--for that video, after setting the video's width to 600 pixels or less.
Note: The embedded video cannot contain iframes.
From the My Events page, click on Edit next to the title of the event to go to the Edit page for that event. (If you are setting up a new event page--that is, you just pressed Create Event and the page you are on says Create an Event--you can skip this step and go directly to step 3 below.)
In Step 3: Add Event Details, click the HTML button on the right side of the toolbar (It will say "Edit HTML Source" when you position your cursor over it).
Paste the embed code into the HTML code at the point where you'd like the video to appear. (Don't worry, you can always easily move it around in the event editor later). Click Update.
Note: Your video won't be viewable in the event editor, but will be viewable on the Preview page and on the published event page. Click Preview (for an unpublished event) or View (for a published event) to see how your updated event page looks.
Your video is now in the Event Details box. Excellent! In the event editor, you can reposition the video by dragging it or cutting/pasting it within the box. You can also center or align the video by clicking on the video and using the text-alignment buttons in the HTML toolbar.
