To add a video to your story from your computer:

These instructions are very similar to adding an audio clip so if you’re familiar with that, you’re ahead of the game.

  • While on your story’s page, click the plus sign next to Attachments.
  • Click Browse.
  • Select the video you would like to add.
  • Click Open.
  • Wait a moment for the video to be uploaded. When done the name of the video will show up under Attachments in blue.
  • Right-click the video’s name and click Copy Link Location.
  • Go to the Page Editor for your story by clicking Edit page at the top.
  • While in the Page Editor, select the keywords you would like to trigger the video (for example you might want the reader to see a video of a moving car when they click car chase):
    • Hold down your mouse button
    • Drag the cursor across those words. They should be highlighted in a different color.
  • With those words selected, click the Link button.
  • Click Web address.
  • Right-click the box and click Paste.
  • Click the OK button at the bottom left corner.
  • Click the Save button to keep your changes.
