- To do this, firstly click ‘Libraries’ on the left-hand menu and click on ‘Videos,’ which will appear as an option in the secondary menu to the right.
- Click on the ‘+’ icon to upload your chosen video(s).
- A pop-up will appear, which will prompt you to locate and select the videos you want to upload to the Dashboard.
- Once the download completes, another pop-up will appear to enable you to edit details about your video. You can also do this by clicking on the pencil icon to edit.
- In this page, you can:
a. Add a title to your video (maximum of 66 characters)
b. Add a short description (maximum of 256 characters)
c. Upload a poster image, which will appear as a thumbnail
d. Add a description about the video in the rich-text editor field
Attendees are more likely to watch videos that have eye-catching thumbnails and engaging
descriptions! - Don’t forget to click ‘Save’ after you have finished editing.
