Adding a Channel

Adding a channel is simple. The only thing you’ll need ahead of time is the name of the channel you’d like to add.

To add a channel follow these steps:

  1. Use the form on the left-hand side of the “Channels/Playlists” page.
  2. Name your channel. The channel’s name is just for your reference. This has nothing to do with finding the channel or importing videos.
  3. Make sure “Channel” is selected in the drop-down menu.
  4. Enter the YouTube® channel name or channel ID. Most channels should be added by ID! It is important you enter the correct name. To make sure you have the right name read the instructions by clicking here. To find your channel ID click here.
  5. Choose the post type you’d like your channel published as. “Post” is selected by default and what you should use if you don’t intend to publish this channel as a custom post type.
  6. Decide if you’d like the video posts from this channel to be published automatically.
  7. Select which categories in which you’d like your video for this channel posted.
  8. Select the author to which you’d like the videos from this channel attributed.
  9. Click the “Add Channel” button.

That’s it! You’re done. The channel has been added. Now just watch the videos posts start pouring in.
