The Video Element is used to display a video file that has been uploaded into your File Manager. We recommend using the .MP4 file format for all your videos.

Uploading a Video to the File Manager

The Video Element will automatically pull all the videos that are uploaded into the File Manager of your website. If you have not uploaded your video yet, please jump into the File Manager located in the Dashboard.  



Please Note: 
  • We do not recommend using a .MOV video format as it will not play across every device/browser. Please use .MP4 instead.
  • If your video is over 100MB in file size, please consider uploading your video to YouTube then using the YouTube Element as large videos will slow down the load times of the page. 
  • The first frame of the video will be used as the default thumbnail image.


Adding a Video Element

  1. Log in as an admin.
  2. Navigate to the page you wish to add the video to.
  3. Drag and drop the Video Element into a Content Area. Note that the size of YouTube is dependent on how large the Content Area is.
  4. Select your desired Video and click Save Changes.
