The microsite video component is used on microsites as header component.

Functions/Interactions

  • A looping video is shown with a link to youtube to play the full video

Author Rules

  • The microsite video component can only be placed on the microsite template within the microsite section
  • The component can be used with video or with an image only
  • The author defines the color, video, background image and text

Properties

  • Video: the author can upload a short video clip into the AEM DAM and link to it here. Please note that this should not be too large else it will slow down loading of the page
  • YouTube ID: the youtube ID of a video can be set here so that the component can link to a longer version of the video on youtube
  • YouTube button label: the label that is shown below the video, e.g. "Show more"
  • Background color: In the example below, the background color is red. There is a selection of colors to choose from
  • Image: the author can use an image instead of the video as preview, if the video loop is deactivated. If the loop-option is active, the image is not shown
  • Background image: use an svg or png (with a transparent background) here which is displayed in the bottom right corner of the component
  • Description text: for titles and text, this is shown to the right of the video. This is the only place where Heading 1 for page titles can be used
