Adding Video
It is not possible to directly upload videos to the UBC Wiki; however you can embed video files from another service like youtube or Kaltura.
Adding Video in Wikitext editor mode
 | Below is the tutorial for wikitext mode. If you wish to edit video in Visual Editor, see the links above. |

| What You Want to Do | Example of Wiki Code to Use | What You See |

| Embedding a video file: for example the YouTube video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZkvkcgjXbM |
{{#widget:YouTube|id=WZkvkcgjXbM|height=215|width=320}} | |
| Embedding a Kaltura video: must be done through the Kaltura widget Link to add: https://learning.video.ubc.ca/media/Public+Domain+Video+/0_lmoxi8fq uiconf_id/1760292 |
{{#widget:Kaltura|id=0_lmoxi8fq|width=300}} |
Aligning Videos to the Left or Right
You can use html div's to align your video to the left or right side of the page. For example, the following code places the video on the left side of the page in wikitext mode:
| What You Want to Do | Example of Code to Use | What You See |
|---|---|---|
| Align Video to the Right | <div class="thumb tright">
<div class="thumbinner">
{{#widget:YouTube|id=WZkvkcgjXbM|height=315|width=420}}<br/>
<div class="thumbcaption">Here is a YouTube Video<br/>
</div></div></div>
|
Here is a YouTube Video |
| Align Video to the Left | <div class="thumb tleft">
<div class="thumbinner">
{{#widget:YouTube|id=WZkvkcgjXbM|height=315|width=420}}<br/>
<div class="thumbcaption">Here is a YouTube Video<br/>
</div></div></div>
|
