How Do I Setup Video Banners?

There are 2 ways of setting up a video banner:

- An Image with YouTube Video Popup
- A Video Banner showing an MP4 file
Both methods are done from Customer Order Setup > Web Pages and Email Text > Home Page Banners

Against the banner there is this field where you can paste a YouTube video ID. 

This would open a popup with the YouTube video when the customer clicks on the banner.

YouTube Link -



youtube.com/watch?v=Ox1Q4NIcg9

YouTube video id - Ox1Q4NIcg9

You will also need to tick the Video checkbox.


Video Banner - MP4 File

You can upload an mp4 file against the banner. This would display exactly the same as an image, but would be a looping video.

Please note: If there is more than one banner uploaded the carousel will go through the images/videos (it will not wait for the video to finish playing) as usual.

Please note: The carousel will display each slide for 5 seconds before going through to the next item so take this into consideration when loading the video.

These videos are meant to be short promotional videos, max 400-500kb in file size which usually results in around 5-6 seconds length depending on the video is optimized.

An example video would be something made up from bits of a Kit Launch reveal video:

In terms of setup you need to tick Video and load the file against the banner.
