Hi, i am in the design phase of my website (using the motion theme) and i currently have a video hero section on the product page, however i cant seem to add a product specific video, and it loads the same video to all products in that collection? 

 

id like to have a generic video for collections, but for some of the products id like to have its own special video.

 

i am definitely not seasoned in website design or coding, is there something i can do here?

Hi @PaulCar22 👋 either use use dynamic sources to have per resource settings, or alternate templates to have different template content per product

Or https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/theme-structure/sections-and-blocks#metafield...

 

If a themes video sections|blocks does not have a generic video setting, then it's an advanced theme customization to add that.

Alternatively use a custom-liquid sections|block and add the HTML for video content that way.

to add to that id like to have the product specific video in the video hero format, rather than a video link to a YT video, looks cleaner imo
