To embed video via the HTML sectionIf you wish to add a video player from a platform other than YouTube or Vimeo, you may do so through the HTML section. The player you add must support embedding by the third party.
| If you are not familiar with HTML or embedding, we highly recommend using the video section option. Responsiveness and effectiveness of embedded players will vary depending on the code provided by third parties and your own knowledge of HTML. For further assistance with embedding video players, please contact our team directly. Learn more about the HMTL section. |
