Managing Sets with both Videos and Photos

Article Topics: Sets, Content, Blocks

When you find yourself uploading both Photos and Videos to a Set, you may want to manage how they're displayed to your visitors. This article will walk you through the different ways you can go about displaying the Set.

Videos and Images on Separate Pages

Say we have a set that contains both a video and photos, such as the set in the above image, and we want to give our visitors the option of selecting their preferred focus, whether that is video or photo. We'd do this by providing a link near the header, allowing visitors the option of choosing between the two types of content.

1) Navigate to a page with the desired Set View Block.

2) Select the block and navigate to the Design tab.

3) Select an option for where to place the Title Row, which will include destination buttons.

4) Select "Show when photos and videos are available" for the Show Photo/Video Links field.

5) Select a Photo and Video Button Destination and insert Text for the buttons.

In this case, we've selected the /picture/:id and /video/:id pages, so the Set ID will be passed as a parameter, sending the visitor to the correct page.

Display both on one page

Now we'll go over setting both types of content in the Set on the same page, so whether you want videos at the top followed by photos at the bottom, or vice versa.

1) Navigate to a page with the desired Set View Block.

2) Select the block and navigate to the Design tab.

3) Select an option for Media Area 1 Content, and an option for Media Area 2 Content.

Please Note: If you are modifying a Set View Block on a dedicated Video Page, don't forget to account for the Set View Block on a dedicated Photo Gallery page as well, since a Set with both Photos and Videos will be included in a Set List Block filtered to display Images.

In this case, we've opted for displaying both photos and videos on a single page.
