Adding a Video Widget

This widget allows you to add a video to your Homepage. This can help you to add a personal touch and take advantage of the best a mobile app has to offer! To add a video widget, go to your Shoppy Dasbhoard, click "Add Widget" and select "Video".

From there, you can click Actions -> Customize Widget to personalize the details of the widget such as its title, image, and aspect ratio. For each video you add, you can insert a destination link that will take users to your location of choice once they click on it. You can direct users to a custom URL, pages, cart, or to specific product.

Here is a full list of all of the details you can autonomously change about the Video Widget:

  • Title

  • Choose to show or hide the title

  • Insert a video by uploading a file from your computer

  • Insert a destination link of where to take your customers when they click on your video

  • Choose whether or not to have a border around your widget

  • Change the aspect ratio of the video's image choosing between presets or the original

  • Choose the width of the lateral margins of your widget, choosing between one of the presets or set your own

Publishing your Video widget:

You can also choose to publish (show in) or hide your widget in specific markets. To show the widget in a market, click "Show in" under Markets, then select the regions or countries of your choose from the drop down menu. Click "Hide in" under Markets, then select the areas where your widget should not be shown to only hide the widget from one or more locations of your choice.

You may also schedule when your widgets should appear and disappear by clicking the toggle next to "Schedule". From there, you can select the start date and time from the calendar, then click "Apply". Do the same for the end date, and make sure to save your changes!

Please note that widgets' timezone release are based on the timezone of your Shoppy Dashboard.

This widget allows you to add a video to your Homepage to allow for a more customized experience for your store. If your video has sound, users will be able to hear it as long as they have their volume on their mobile device!

Like with images, videos on the homepage can be linked to particular locations by using a destination link. You can direct users to a custom URL, pages, cart, or to specific product once your video is tapped on.

Watch the tutorial below to see how you can set this up on your Shoppy Dashboard:

Watch this short clip below to see how link destinations can work with videos in your own app:

  • Video Title: an additional title you can give the widget, displayed above the video.

  • Don't Show the Title: with this checkbox you can decide whether or not to show the title of the widget, added above the video.

  • Choose video: in this field you can upload a video to be displayed in the widget.

  • Link: you can choose whether to direct the user to a collection or to an external link when the image is tapped on.

  • Collection: choose a collection to sent the user to when the image is tapped.

  • Personalized URL: choose an external link to send users to when they tap on the image.

  • Cart: send users to their cart when they tap on the image

  • Product: send users to a product of your choice once the image is tapped

Aspect Ratio

Allows you to choose the aspect ratio of the image of the video's image:

  • Original: use the aspect ratio of the original video

  • Use Custom Dimensions: choose a custom aspect ratio of 1:1, 4:3 or 4:5

With the addition of this feature on Shoppy, videos that you upload under Shopify under a description of a product can now also appear in-app!
