Files (Video)

Overview

The Video section allows administrators to upload, view, edit, and manage all video files available in the application. Uploaded videos can be associated with products and categories, making them easily accessible across supported modules.

Administrators can also control the visibility of videos by publishing or unpublishing them and remove videos that are no longer required.

Video Library

Navigate to Files → Video to access the video library.

All uploaded videos are displayed in a list with their file name, extension, and file type for easy identification.

Example:

File Name Extension Type
Video YYYY-MM-DD... MP4 Video

  1. Navigate to Files → Add Files.
  2. Drag and drop the video file into the upload area or click Drop files or click here.
  3. Select the required video file.
  4. Click Submit to upload the video.

If no file is selected, the system displays:

The Edit Video page contains the following fields:

Video Status

The visibility of a video is managed using the Status option.

Delete Video

Administrators can permanently remove videos that are no longer required.

To delete a video:

  1. Open the required video.
  2. Click Delete.
  3. Confirm the deletion.

Warning:
Deleting a video permanently removes it from the media library. If the video is mapped to products or categories, it will no longer be available in those locations.

Supported mappings include:

  • Products
  • Categories

Once a product or category is selected, the associated mapping (ID or Name) is displayed on the edit page.

Best Practices

  • Use meaningful video titles for easy identification.
  • Add a clear description to explain the video's purpose.
  • Map videos to the correct products and categories.
  • Publish videos only after verifying their content.
  • Use Unpublished instead of deleting videos that may be required in the future.
  • Delete videos only after confirming they are no longer used anywhere in the application.

Important:
Any modifications made to a video, including updating its details, changing its status, or mapping it to products and categories, will not be applied until you click the Update button.
