Big Enhancements to Hero Video Widget
Oct 17, 2024
The Hero Video Widget creates a bold visual on any page with a looping video filling the space. This enhancement expands the looping video sources to both YouTube and Vimeo for more flexibility in managing video.
As before, clicking on the floating play button will reveal a standard longer form video that also can pull in video from YouTube and now Vimeo as well.
In addition to the video source enhancements, a new transformation has been added as an alternate to a popup long form video. This new transformation features an optional centered headline, hero text and up to two buttons in our Layout A – Text Box Centered style. This layout functions exactly as expected with the usual styling options.
This is an exciting new vehicle for adding video in any hero space on a page and easily adding eye-catching movement along with key information and links.

Note that the long form video pop-up window is actually a reveal window in the background coding so it will not fail in browsers with pop-ups suppressed.
