Use this templateFrequently asked questions
How do I put my own videos in a carousel?
Add your videos by their direct file links in this template and paste one code into your website.
Where can my videos be hosted?
Anywhere with a direct file link — your hosting, cloud storage or a CDN. Google Drive share links are not direct file links.
Do I need YouTube for this?
No. Your own files play in the gallery’s player, without YouTube branding.
Can I add a button after each video?
Yes. A call-to-action card with your link can appear when a video ends.
Does it work on my website builder?
It works on any website that accepts one installation code — WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, plain HTML and more.
Is it free?
Yes. There’s a free plan, no credit card needed.
