How to Add Background Videos to Layer Slides

When you’re using the Layer Slides feature in MetaSlider, it is possible to add video backgrounds to your slides. You will have a default image for your slide, but this video will show instead of the image.

  • Go to “MetaSlider” in your WordPress admin menu.
  • Edit an existing Layer Slide or add a new Layer Slider.
  • Choose what type of video background you want to use.

  • If you selected “Local video”, choose a video from your Media Library. If you selected “External video”, enter the video URL.
  • You have now completed the process. You can click the “Launch Layer Editor” button to build your slide.
