Video Directory how to use

[admin]

You may have noticed there are video thumbnails on the forum home page and the website home page. These thumbnails will take you to videos posted by members. There is also a link to the Video Directory "Video Gallery" on the forum side column . The videos are organized by categories. Members can post videos by linking to youtube and a few other video hosting services such as:

YouTube
YouTube High Definition
Metacafe
Veoh
Flickr
Myspace
Dailymotion
Slideshare
Google
Yahoo

This doesn't mean that you should stop posting videos for discussion in threads. But if it's a good dog or PD training related video consider adding it in the video section also. It's easy to do and will be better accessible for future viewing as well as enhance the forum. The videos in the Video Directory can be commented on and rated.

How to add videos.

Click on the "Video Gallery" link in the forum side column. This will take you to the Video Directory where you will see a list of "Directory Categories" on the left. Click on the category your video should go in. On the next page click the add video button.



You will then see an editor similar to when you write a post with areas for the direct link to your video, the title, the description and duration. Please keep the title short, 3 or 4 words. Click "Add Video" at the bottom and you're done.
