How to add videos
You can upload videos straight to your page (in Classroom) or your post/comments (in Community). Native hosting feature is included in your plan.
- Navigate to your Course in your Classroom. Add a page to your course.
- Now, click the Add video button and drag and drop the video into the uploader box.
- Once the video is processed, it will be available to watch right away.
- You can add timestamps in the text field underneath the video to create chapters.
- Closed captions (in English) are automatically generated for videos with sound. Users have the option to toggle speed & quality of the video.
Members can upload videos to community posts and comments as well.
We continue supporting other video hosting platforms that we have always been - YouTube, Vimeo, Loom, and Wistia. Here are a few friendly tips that will assist you in embedding content hosted on these platforms in Skool.
A) YouTube
The YouTube link format looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEUMVwc4o5U
If in case you have unlisted videos, make sure to "Allow Embedding" from YouTube video settings.
B) Vimeo
Vimeo links look like this: https://vimeo.com/291933000
We recommend additional settings. Please refer to the Vimeo doc here.
C) Loom
Loom links look like this: https://www.loom.com/share/679eefb452f640c3af83e25ce36a695a
We recommend these additional settings to make your lesson video look cleaner.
- Toggle the sharing settings off from the Loom video settings, from the right-hand side pane.
