In order to diversify the content of web sites, online video is added in Zsite Pro. Go to CMS->Video at the backend, and add videos. Then go to UI->Widge and create a widget. Choose Latest Video, Hot Video or Video Tree as the Type of Content. After that, you can set the Layout for each page at UI->Layout.


1. Switch on Video module

Video is not on by default, so the Admin has to switch it on by checking it in SET->Site->Basic Settings.


2. Manage Video module

2.1 Manage categories of Video

After the Video module is switched on, you have to add categories before you use it.

3. Upload Videos


Click Create Video to add videos to your Zsite.
