Can I embed a zoom video or live feed on my custom presentation page?

I tried to embed my password-protected video presentation on the presentation page of my campaign but it is not working? 

We do not recommend trying to embed any password-protected video presentations on the presentation page, as most are not compatible.

Instead, we recommend providing a link to this password-protected video presentation in a custom section on the home page, so guests will be able to access this protected video in a different browser.  Thus creating a 2-device experience. 

My Facebook Live Livestream is not displaying on my presentation page.

If you are getting an error that your content cannot be displayed in a frame, check to make sure your Facebook Live video is being broadcast from a page and not a group.  To ensure your broadcast is from a page:

1. Ensure the video is set to Public
2. Pick the URL of the Facebook video you want to embed
3. Paste the URL to the Code Configurator and click "Get Code" to generate your embedded video player code
4. Copy and paste this code into the presentation page embed code field.
