We can't upload videos?

I think there should be a way to upload some videos. Maybe only short ones!

So we can contribute even more and with quality.

Hello @rebecaellerf

As I understand, the Connect site uses third-party software to host the information.

Further, the aim is to load the pages quickly on any platform. Even then there are several complaints about the slow working of the site.

A hosted video would degrade the performance further.

Nevertheless, the site permits providing a link through which one can watch the video. The only drawback is a user needs clicking that to start.

I find uploading a GIF of a video to be more convenient instead of the video itself. That keeps on playing perpetually without any intervention by the user.

Hi @rebecaellerf

Direct video uploading is not possible on Localguideconnect.

You should try the other way around.

  1. First upload the video on Youtube.
  2. Then add your video by submitting the link of your video.

How to copy link of youtube . This is the procedure to copy the youtube video link and then you can post this in video links on Localguide connect.

Hope this will make the things clear. Thank you

Hi @KishorMali Youtube is also a sister company of Google and Youtube is quite well updated software. By uploading video on Youtube, even other viewers can also reach out to your videos.

Why not google makes it’s own self?.

That’s my questions to C_T.

Hello @KishorMali

Frequently, I browse through old articles which provide insight about the working of Connect. You can also do that.

Nevertheless, here is a link to some old communication through which you can gain some insight.

Please note, every business decides to make vs buy depending upon the availability of internal resources as well as expertise & that forms a perpetual exercise.

I see you have received already several answers, all correct, about the fact that in Connect we can only embed videos from Youtube, but not upload videos directly in Connect, following the procedure that, according to your post, you already know.

@KishorMali , I would like to kindly remind you that this is not your thread, and the subject of the thread is NOT the last one raised by you. In addition, as clearly indicated by @C_T , that part has been already discussed. If you want to continue that conversation, please search for a post about that subject, and ask in there. Thank you

@rebecaellerf concordo 100% com voce, limitaria um tempo maximo como nas postagens dos lugares em 30 segundos, aos menos 15 minutos sem ser através do YouTube, passando de um certo tempo, cim links.
