# How to Add a Slide From a Pixabay Video

MetaSlider's Local Video slides can pull a free video straight from Pixabay, without you needing to download and re-upload it yourself. This works in the free plugin.

## How to Add a Slide From a Pixabay Video

1. Open the slideshow you want to edit, then click 'Add a new slide' above the slide list. In the window that opens, click 'Local Video' on the left, then click 'Pixabay Library'.
