Hello Community, this is my first post and I am a returning user for Webflow to rebuild my portfolio. I have bought a template and I am trying to utilize it and publish when ready.
I wanted to add some videos in between CMS Cases (individual portfolio work) so I went over and did these steps:
Go to CMS Collections and open up Settings for Cases
Added a custom field for “Video” and located that row where I want it to be visualized.
Added the link and published.
Even though the link has been added properly and all, it wouldn’t show up in the actual website. I checked the navigator, and it wasn’t there also.
What am I doing wrong? Please help out Webflow masters.
Here is my read only link to the following work page:
Hi Alvin, not sure where you’re having problems.
Most of your Cases do not have a video, but “Twitch Squad” does, in the video 1 field.
In your collection / collection lists bound to Cases, you’d drop a video element and then bind it to that field in order to display it.
If you’ve done that and are still having issues you might need to do a video to show exactly what you’re doing and where, and what kind of problem you’re encountering.
I have just myself bought a template, where I had to add video.
the 3 steps you described is perfectly correct, you are just missing the last step.
The first 3 steps are just adding the video in your backend - you need to also add it in the frontend (in order to where it should actually be located on your site).
What you ned to do
When looking at that site or subsite you want the video to be placed - open the “Add Elements” -menu (shortcut: A). Then choose Video.
Tip: I think you can just drag and drop, but I found it usefull to use the navigator in order to place the video-field in just the right spot, by selecting the correct layer, and then add the video-field in “Add Elements”.
Remember - After adding the video field, you need to connect it to your backend data by selecting it under you video fields settings.
