Title
The title appears centered above the SocialVerse and can provide context to what the website visitor is seeing. You can enable or disable the Title display.
Clip Counter
The clip counter appears below the Title text and displays the video counter so the website visitor has an idea of how many videos there are.
Closed Captioning
If you'd like the videos in the SocialVerse to offer closed captioning, enable this option.
Accent Color
The accent color is used on the navigation buttons on the SocialVerse and the video thumbnail border when hovered by the mouse. We recommend using your business' brand color as long as the contrast is high on the background color of the website page the SocialVerse is embedded on.
Format
If you prefer to change the view type of your SocialVerse you can scroll down to the bottom of the right panel and select Change.
Select from the available SocialVerse view type and click Save
