Note: Before making changes to the template, be sure to make a copy of the template page. Refer to the previous scenarios for instructions on duplicating pages.

Step 1: After duplicating the video template and renaming the page, scroll down to the Content section of the page. In this scenario, we will be using module number 3 Rich Text, Video 1. Click the bar to open the module.

Step 2: Within the Rich Text editor box, click on the pencil icon. In the new window, click on the magnifying glass in the Video section. Then, click on the New Video button.

Step 3: Under the Provider section, click on the drop-down menu, and choose HTML 5. Then, enter the title of the video in the Headline (Required) section.

Step 4: Click on the Add Video File icon, then click the Choose button. Select the desired video file, and click the Open button.

Step 5: At the top of the page, slide the gray bar to the right and click the Localization tab. Then, click the drop-down menu under Locale and choose the language used in your video. Remember to choose a language that also includes the name of the Country, such as "Spanish (Spain) - espanol (Espana)."

Step 6: Toward the top-right of the page, unselect the Generate Permalink box. Then, click on the Publish button. This will publish the video to the page.

Step 7: Click on the Back button on the top left corner of the page.

Step 8: The new video should be in the top left side of the Select Video page. However, if it does not show there, you can search for the video's title in the Search bar. Once located, click on the video and the page will close. Then, click the Save & Close button.

Step 9: Within the same Rich Text box, change the name of the video. Then, click on the gray bar to close the module.

Note: Repeat the steps to add videos to the other modules. Depending on your specific needs, you can also delete any unnecessary video modules. To do this, click on the red minus sign on the right side of the module you would like to delete and the video will be hidden from your page. Click the plus sign to make the video appear again. If more modules are needed, click the Add Module icon.

Adding Section and Button Titles

Now that you have your video uploaded to your page, you will need to change the section title and the button titles to match the details of your video. To do so, follow these steps:

Step 1: We will be using module number, 2 List, Untitled. Click the bar to open the module.

Step 2: Change the Video Section Title in the Description box.

Step 3: Click the module labeled 1 Promo, Untitled. In the Description, change the name of the video.

Step 4: Click on the link labeled Insert Text. Then, click the pencil icon. Within the new page, change the name of the button in the Button Text section. Click the Save and Close button.

Step 5: Continue to work through each promo module to change the video button titles as necessary. Make sure that the number of buttons matches the number of videos on your page. You may need to add or delete buttons depending on your specific needs.

Step 6: Click the Floppy Disc icon, in the top right corner, to save your work. Then, click on the Workflow button. From the drop-down menu, click on the To Review button to send your page to be reviewed.
