- You can also add media to your lesson content, the most common is the addition of video to the lesson content.
- You can add videos in two ways
Way 1: Upload your video to the website’s memory. Then use the “Add Media” button to add the videos to the lesson content
Way 2: You can also add videos by pasting the video URL in the lesson content. - We encourage you to do the second way, it will reduce the weight on your server, improve the speed of the page.
- If, after adding a video to a lesson, the video content is not displayed on the user page, you should check your plugins have a lazy load settings, and turn off lazy load on the iframe tag.
