Featured Video

This can feature videos from Youtube or Vimeo but we would prefer Vimeo since it won’t include any branded UI. If this video is not for our YouTube channel, please host it on Vimeo. Navigate to the blog homepage and scroll to “Featured Video Post”. This field requires you to link an existing blog post and enter either the Youtube or Vimeo URL. The blog post doesn’t need to include the video but ideally should be related.

For YouTube: Go to your YouTube video and copy the URL from your browser's navigation bar. For Vimeo: Log into Vimeo using 1Password and upload the desired video. Then select the video and click "Advanced", "Distribution", and "Video File Links" and copy the link.
