Wix Video: Allowing Comments on Your Videos

Create higher engagement from your site members by allowing them to comment on your videos.

Once they have logged in, your viewers can add comments, post replies and "like" comments on your uploaded videos or live streams.

Important:

Comments can be enabled for videos that you have uploaded, but not for videos that are embedded videos from other platforms like YouTube or Facebook.

To enable or disable comments in Wix Video:

1. Go to your editor.

2. Click the Wix Video player.

3. Click Settings.

4. Click Player.

5. In the Comments section, enable or disable the toggles:

   • Allow on uploaded videos:

     • Enabled: Viewers can comment on videos uploaded from your Video Library.

     • Disabled: Viewers cannot comment on videos uploaded from your Video Library.

   • Allow during live stream:

     • Enabled: Viewers can comment on your live stream videos.

       Note: Comments are only displayed during the live stream.

     • Disabled: Viewers cannot comment on your live stream videos.

Notes:
