How to add individual website content
The ability to add customized website content for artists is key to showcasing the uniqueness and personality of each artist on your website. In this support article, you’ll learn how to use WordPress and the Elementor page builder to add specific content, such as a video or a large text quote, to individual artists’ pages.
Embedding a video
A video can take an artist’s portfolio to the next level. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to add a video to a specific artist’s page:
- Logging into the WordPress account: Log into your WordPress admin area.
- Navigate to the artist’s page: Select the artist’s page on which you want to embed the video.
- Open Elementor: To do this, go to “Edit Artist” in the menu bar at the top and select “Edit with Elementor” in the window that opens. You can now start editing the desired artist page.
4. Add video widget: Drag the video widget from the Elementor library to the desired position on the page.
5. Insert video URL: Insert the URL of the video. This can be a URL from platforms such as YouTube or Vimeo.
6. Adjust settings: If required, adjust the settings of the video widget, e.g. the size or autoplay options.
7. Save and publish: After you have inserted and customized the video, save the page and publish it.

Adding more Elementor widgets follows the same intuitive pattern. Elementor offers a wide range of widgets that you can insert in a similar way. Examples of these are:
- Texts: Use the text editor widget and insert quotes from or about the artist, for example.
- Image galleries: Drag the image gallery widget to showcase stunning photo collections.
- Buttons: Add buttons to provide clear calls to action or links to other pages.
- Contact forms: Easily add contact forms to encourage interaction with visitors.
