One of the options that you can use to stream a video through your Events page is with a YouTube video - either live or pre-recorded.
Follow the steps below to lean how to add a YouTube video link to your event.
Step 1: Open up your Event Overview.
First, you’ll want to log into your Fundraising Pages account and go to the Events page for your upcoming event, where you can have your Event Overview open. (this will make the final steps a little bit easier).
Step 2: Open up YouTube in a separate tab.
Once you've opened up YouTube, you'll want to locate the specific video you'd like to use for your event.
Step 3: Click on the "Share" button underneath the YouTube video.
A pop-up message should appear and display several different sharing options in addition to a URL.
Step 4: Click the "Copy" button next to the URL to copy the link to your clipboard.
Step 5: Return to your Event Overview.
Once you have copied that link, you’ll want to navigate over to that window or tab where you have your Events page open in Fundraising Pages.
Step 6: Click on the "Livestream" tab.
Once the Livestream tab has loaded, you should see a section indicating that you can share the hosted URL in that space.
Step 7: Click on the "Add Livestream URL" button.
Step 8: Paste the URL from YouTube into the livestream URL field.
In that livestream video URL field, paste (Control +V for PCs, Command +V for Macs) that YouTube link that you just copied.
Not using a “live” video for your event, but want to use a static video? Not to worry – you'd paste the link for that video here as well.
Step 9: Click "Update" to save your changes.
