Adding Media to a Campaign

How to add video

We strongly encourage you to include video that communicates directly with your supporters. To add a video:

• Upload it to YouTube.
• Underneath the video, click Share, then Embed.
• In the embed options: click Use HTTPS.
• In the Custom sizing area, enter a width of 445.
• In the editor toolbar below, click Source.
• Copy/paste the embed code from YouTube into your campaign below.
• Click Source again to get back to the normal editing mode.

You'll see an IFRAME code in the editor where your video will go. The video will display normally on your campaign page.
