Hey y’all, the Wix Video app is pretty cool in concept but I’m so confused why there are just a few elements of it that we don’t seem to have access to. When displaying a gallery of videos, the only option for showing titles is underneath the video. Why isn’t the option available to show the title on the video thumbnail, or on hover? My ideal situation is a grid gallery of videos, and when you hover, show the video title and categories.
I also can’t figure out how to customize the dropdown for video categories.
Does anyone have any experience working on / making changes these elements?
Also to be clear I’m talking about the Wix Video app, ~not~ using a Gallery of videos. Because even that doesn’t have the options I need.
Hi Werewolf,
The Wix video app is very limited. If you want some support, contact customer care:
This forum is for wix code related topics only. If you want to create your own video streaming app, you can do that without code (just use a database & releaters), and you can create your dropdown filter as well(using a dataset & without code). You will need to add some code to show the titles on hover.
Here is a tutorial on how to create your custom video streaming app:
You can skip the first 2 minutes because the tutorial starts from there.
You can create your dropdown filter using this:

You can create your showing titles on hover using _mouseIn & _mouseOut:
Was this you what you wanted to do?
