How to get up and running with SmartVideo if you are using Click Funnels
UPDATE: You can certainly use this guide below to help you setup Video Swarmify on Click Funnels, however, we’ve now published a Complete Click Funnels Guide that greatly expands on Swarmify + Click Funnels.
Account setup:
If you already have a SmartVideo account, to Installation.
If you do not, create your SmartVideo account. Once registered, you’ll be given a unique key to access the Swarmify API. This Swarm CDN Key is required to configure your site for video delivery by Swarmify.
Installation on Click Funnels
-
Install our JavaScript into the “Settings > Tracking Code > Header” section of each page in your funnel
-
Use our SmartVideo tag to add video to your page where “
https://your-video.example.com/file.mp4” is equal to the link to your YouTube/Vimeo/Dropbox/WP Media Library, etc. video -
Here’s how to set autoplay (which is recommended to start with volume muted) and here’s is how to hide controls (which is not recommended because users will not have a way to unmute the player).
What happens after I install?
After installing our script into your site’s head tag, SmartVideo will begin scanning your site for videos. If you’ve enabled Vimeo auto-conversion when generating your snippet (the autoreplace: { vimeo: true } block from the Configuration tab in your Swarmify dashboard), any Vimeo videos on your site will be automatically converted to SmartVideo. See Automatic Vimeo conversions for details.
A video can take up to 30 minutes to convert to SmartVideo depending on the length and resolution of the video file. You’ll know a video has been converted when it plays in the SmartVideo player — look for its floating rounded control bar in place of your original embed. For more ways to confirm it’s working, see How do I know SmartVideo is working?.
Note on YouTube: Auto-conversion from YouTube has been retired — YouTube’s download restrictions made the import method unreliable. Its replacement is the library import: you choose which videos to bring into your SmartVideo library through your SmartVideo dashboard, then place them on your page with a SmartVideo tag.
