What is a cover photo & video?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Campaign cover photo<\/strong> is the picture appearing in the media gallery or the first picture in the slideshow<\/a> if that option was set up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Campaign cover video<\/strong> puts a ‘Play’ button overtop of the cover photo (because we all know the random stills from a paused video can be less than optimal!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
