Implementing a pop-out video functionality within the Finalsite platform, triggered by an image click, involves configuring the content management system to recognize an image selection as an action to initiate video playback in a modal window or overlay. For example, a school’s homepage might feature a photograph of a recent event; clicking this image would launch a video highlighting the event’s activities without navigating away from the homepage.
This enhancement offers a more engaging user experience, allowing institutions to present dynamic content without disrupting the browsing flow. Embedding video content directly often leads to higher engagement rates compared to linking to external video hosting platforms. Historically, this type of interactive feature required custom coding, but modern content management systems like Finalsite increasingly offer built-in or readily available modules to simplify the process.
