The difference between Channels and Folders
When using our Hosting platform, you have two ways to store and display content: Channels and Folders.
Channels
Channels are curated collections of videos and images that you can share with viewers. You can customize a channel by uploading a logo that your viewers will see at the top, adding a description, choosing the video play order, and selecting the channel layout. You can then share the link to the channel with your audience so they can view it.
Here is an example of how a channel will look to your viewers:
For more information about how to create a channel, please see our Channels video tutorial.
You can even embed a channel on other websites as well!
Folders
Folders are used within your ScreenPal hosting account to organize your content. Folders cannot be shared with viewers. If you are a member of a Team Plan, you can add team members to your folders so that they can use and manage the content within them.
Folders are displayed at the top of your ScreenPal Library when All is selected in the Content menu.
For more information about Folders and how to create them, check out our Folders video tutorial.
If you use our Video Messaging extension for Google Chrome, we will automatically create folders for you based on where you recorded your video!
