How do I put a video or a social post in a story?

In this story

Where: Stories → All stories → The story editor

Open this page: admin.<your-site>/articles (replace <your-site> with your site address). Then open the one you want.

Steps

  1. Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features. The page is called Features.
  2. Find Video stories and embeds under For your site. If it is not there, open Other niches. Tap Switch on (or Show in my admin). When it shows On, it is ready.
  3. If it shows Needs and a plan name, your plan does not include it yet. See Choose a plan.
  4. Open the story in the editor.
  5. Insert an embed from the toolbar.
  6. Paste the link to the video or post.

Good to know

  • Only the site owner can switch features on. Others see: "Only the owner can add features. Ask the owner to switch one on."

Common problems

I cannot find Video stories and embeds in my admin. Why: The feature is off or not yet installed. Fix: Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features and tap Switch on or Show in my admin. If a screen says "This feature is switched off. The owner can switch it on in Features.", ask the owner.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What if my link is not accepted?

The link must be from YouTube, X, Instagram or Facebook. The editor tells you if it is not.

Can I upload my own video?

Yes, with the video hosting add-on. YouTube links work without it.
