How to videos are mirroring each other

[clafferty]

I am very much a novice so please be kind. In my drop down menu, I have two pages nested under 'How to'. One is 'application' and the other is ''removal'. Each of these pages need the associated video on their respective pages. I can link the videos to the pages correctly, however for some reason they are mirroring each other. For example, I upload the 'application video' and everything is fine. However when I upload the 'removal video' to the removal page, the video on the application page changes to the 'removal video'. If I subsequently change the application video back again, then the removal video changes to the application video. What am I doing wrong? This is a crucial part of the product and I need to have it easily locatable on the website.

Thanks in advance

please note the videos are not the final videos

Hi @clafferty ,

It looks like you are using the same template for each pages. 

Can you edit the page and check if both the pages has same template?

[clafferty]

I have gone into each page. They are seperate pages. They both have the same template with is 'default'. the only other option in the theme template is 'contact'. I do not want a contact page. I want a video to be inserted. Is this what you mean?

This is why they are showing the same content. 

You will have to create different template for each pages. You can do this by following below steps.

Step 1: Go to online store > customize 

Step 2: From the top of the page, go to "Pages"

Step 3: On pages, create a new template. You can make it a copy of default page.

Once the template has been created, you can select it on page.

This way, you can customize each page individually. 

Note: Never customize the default template, because by default, this template is used by every new page. If you add page-specific content to the default template, it will be reflected on all pages that use it. So, every time you create a new page, make sure to create a new template.

If you require any further help regarding Shopify theme, you can let me know.

Best regards,

Makka
