Preview of videos inside posts

One of the first upgrades we are happy to introduce with release 3.19.0. is to the video blocks inside Articles / Videos / Galleries.  Now, when you add a video block to the body of a post, you can preview it inside the CMS.

This video preview feature lets you check if the video you want to add to the body of your Article / Video / Gallery works before you upload it to your website.

Previewing a video inside a post

To preview a video inside an Article / Video / Gallery:

1. Add a Video block to the body of your content.

2. In the Choose video box, type in the video you want to add.

3. A preview of the video will appear inside the block.

4. Select Save Block to save it.

5. When you save the video block, you’ll notice a preview of the video but also of the video’s main media image.

Also, remember that to add a video block to a post, you first have to upload a video to the platform.

Quick access to daily created content

As you know, we are all about making the experience of creators with Sportl365 as easy and efficient as possible.

That’s why with this latest update, we introduce a shortcut that lets users access–straight from their dashboard–all the Articles / Videos / Galleries they have created in the last 12 hours.

To access My content simply open your Sportal365 Dashboard.

And, well, that’s it.

Preview of embedded content

To be able to preview the content of an Embed code block inside the CMS is a great feature because creators can examine if the social media / video they want to add to their post works; before publishing it online for everyone to see.

You can preview Social or Video embedded content. If you select the Social option, you can embed code from Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. In case you select the Video option, you can embed content from YouTube and Vimeo.

Previewing embedded content

To preview embedded content from Facebook:

1. Go to the post you want to embed on Facebook and select Embed from the top right corner menu.

2. Then, select Advanced Settings.

3. Next, select Get Code.

4. Select the code from Step 2.

Follow the same process for embedding videos from Instagram and Twitter. If you want to embed video content, select the Video option and do the same.

Detailed tournament translations

Translations is an already familiar feature designed to improve the quality of your copy, and save creators time when they translate from English to another language the names of coaches, venues, tournaments, teams, players, and so on.

With release 3.19.0., we’ve added an improvement to the translation of tournament-related data. We’ve added a Season box, which lets creators access and translate information for all teams from a certain season.

Moreover, we have added a new module with translation options for each team, so that creators can enjoy detailed info without leaving the page.

Translating data for specific season

To translate tournament-related data for a specific season:

1. Select your language in Translate to, and choose Tournament in the Entity box.

2. When the Tournament panel opens, select Tournament.

3. Once you do that, a Season box will appear where you need to select a season.

4. Then, a Teams panel will open with a selection of teams for translation.

5. Pick a team to translate and select the Translate button.

6. A Translate team panel will open with detailed team information for translation.

7. When done, select Save Translation.
