    Collecting videos from on-site galleries

    Collect user-generated videos from shoppers right through your on-site Media Galleries.

    How does it work?

    Easy! Video curation from on-site Photo Galleries works the exact same way as photo uploads. Simply make sure the Upload Button is enabled for the gallery or galleries you wish to collect videos from. 

    1. Log in to your Yotpo Visual UGC admin.
    2. Click Galleries.
    3. Click Photo Galleries.
    4. Click on the relevant existing gallery, or create a new one.
    5. Within the gallery settings page, toggle the On-site Uploads to enable it.
    6. Customize your Upload button.

    What happens next?

    Shoppers will be able to upload videos and photos via your on-site gallery by clicking on the upload button.

    Please note:
    • Video uploads are supported for all video file types except for MKV files.
    • Shoppers can upload videos up to 2GB in size.

    Where do I find uploaded videos?

    Videos uploaded through on-site Photo Galleries can be found on your Visual Curation moderation page:

    1. Click Visual Curation.
    2. Click Uploaded.
    3. Photos and videos uploaded via your on-site gallery will appear in the Uploaded on-site tab.

    How do I curate videos for albums and galleries?

    Simply click Albums and organize videos into albums the same way photos are curated. You can curate videos into existing custom albums or create an entirely new album.

    Tip:
    Albums and galleries can contain a mix of photos and videos or you can create dedicated galleries exclusively for photos and/or videos.

    Next, assign the desired album to the relevant Custom Gallery, and don't forget to click Save Changes when you're done. That's it!

    How do I tag products in videos?

    You can tag products to videos the same way you tag products to photos. Once products are tagged to a video, the video will be automatically added to the relevant product album which will display on the relevant product page gallery. 

    Tip:
    Be sure to check out the Visual Curation guide for more helpful info about curation, albums, galleries, and everything in between!
