We love to see videos! Cats being cats, dogs being funny, breaking news, inspirational uplifting videos, and especially videos of anything happening in the area!

Now, it's even easier to upload many types of videos to the site.
1. Simply hover over on the Video Button in the Editor bar above the dialog box and it will show you two options, 'Provider' and 'Video':

Go up to the url at the top and, using the mouse, highlight the string of numbers (the video ID) by clicking at one end then dragging the cursor across until you have all the numbers behind the ".com/" highlighted. Press and Hold the Control button on your keyboard then press the letter C to copy that highlighted portion (or if on a Mac, hold the Command button then press the letter C to copy).


Note: When clicking on the Share button that's on a Vimeo video, its url appears in a pop-up box and you can highlight and copy the unique identifier at the end of the link that way as well:


5. Now go back to the tab you have open where you are posting to My Mountain Town. The Video Settings "Provider" box should be open and ready for you to enter the video ID:


6. Click in the ID box with your mouse cursor and paste in the video ID by pressing and holding the Control (or Command) button and then press the letter V. Click "Add" at the bottom of the "Provider" window to add the video to the post you are creating.
