## FAQs

### Q. Can you host my video or audio content?

A. Yes, use an [Upload Video Block](./upload-video-block.help.md) to upload your video files. Use an [Audio Block](./audio-upload-block.help.md) to upload your audio files.

### Q. Why isn't my private video showing up for learners?

A. Some privacy settings will not allow your videos to be viewed by learners when embedded in your Path.

- *Private* YouTube videos cannot be viewed by learners when embedded. Use the *Unlisted* setting instead.
- [Private Vimeo videos that are restricted to embedding on certain domains](../../faqs-and-tips/video-tips/restrict-playback-of-your-vimeo-plus-videos.help.md) will need your domain (\*.pathwright.com or your custom domain) whitelisted. You will also need to have the following domain whitelisted when you embed from the URL: [cdn.iframe.ly](http://cdn.iframe.ly/).

### Q. Can I link out to third-party content with a hyperlink instead?

A. Absolutely. Add any [Text Block](./text-blocks.help.md) and then highlight the text you'd like to hyperlink. In the editor that pops up, select the hyperlink button. Enter your link and then hit Enter.

### Q, Can I embed a button link?

A. Yes, you can use the [Meeting Block](./meeting-block.help.md) to add a link out to a virtual meeting or calendar app (or anything, really).

### Q. My H5P objects or other third-party embeds aren't loading correctly. What can I do?

A. Some types of embeds ask you to inject a script into your school header. You can paste your code under Dashboard > Account Settings.

### Q. Can I embed using SCORM?

A. We are currently unable to export to or import from SCORM. We've been looking into the new Tin Can version of SCORM since it is a better, more future-oriented version, but we don't have a timeline for implementing it.

### Q. Can I embed \_\_\_\_?

A. You can embed content created in a third party program within a step on Pathwright as long as it meets the following criteria:

- It provides an embed code or supports embedding from the URL.
- It's hosted on a server that is under **https** (a secure connection).
- It's no wider than 900px (or it should adapt responsively to the screen width, ideally).
- You have permission to use the material.

If the embed code provided by the third-party service does not load correctly, you can create an iframe by inserting the following code into the embed field:

\<iframe src="**[https://myurl.html](https://myurl.html/)**" width="900" height="500">\</iframe>

Now, change the URL (using http**s**://) to point to where your hosted file is stored. You can adjust the height and width if needed.

You can also generate a responsive embed code by pasting your link here: [https://iframely.com/try](https://iframely.com/try)

**Q. My Typeform isn't embedding correctly on mobile, what do I do?**\
A. For a responsive embed code for Typeform, replace the URL in the code below with your own and paste in as an embed code:

\<div class="typeform-widget" style="width: 100%; height:600px;">\<div class="typeform-wrapper" style="position: relative; width: 100%; height: 100%;">\<iframe id="typeform-full" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" src="**[https://yourbrand.typeform.com/yourID001](https://yourbrand.typeform.com/yourID001)**">span id="selection-marker-1" class="redactor-selection-marker"\</iframe>\</div>\</div>
