Supported Content in Tour Centers | Navless Product Documentation
The Navless Product Documentation details how to enhance Tour Centers by integrating diverse supported content types—including interactive microtours, videos (via direct upload or URL from platforms like YouTube and Vimeo), images (uploaded or linked), PDFs, website URLs (with iframe embedding limitations), and Google Slides presentations—to create engaging, multi-format experiences tailored to different buyer journey stages.
Let's explore the different content and file types you can deploy to enrich your Tour Center.
Content Categories and Types
Interactive Tours
Engage and captivate with hands-on experiences:
- Microtours: Guide your audience through a visual storyline.
Videos
Tell your story with motion and emotion:
- Direct Uploads: Share your narratives directly (up to 99MB; formats: .mp4, .mov, .webm)
- Import via URL: Seamlessly integrate videos from platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia, Loom, and Vidyard.
Images
Capture attention with stunning visuals:

- Import via URL: Access PDFs from anywhere to support your narrative.
Website URLs*
Expand your horizon:
- Integrate web content seamlessly. Note: Effectiveness may vary due to content container dimensions.
*If the website does not allow for its content to be embedded in an iframe, the content will not load. Test your content in a Tour Center first before launching.
Slide Decks
Enrich presentations with dynamic slides:
- Google Slides: Embed presentations via URL from Presenter Mode for an interactive experience.
Adding Google Slides to your Tour Center
Crafting a Compelling Tour Center
The most impactful Tour Centers artfully blend various content types to cater to different stages of the buyer's journey. Whether your focus is on interactive tours, detailed PDFs, or a balanced mix including videos and images, the goal is to meet your buyers where they are. Tailoring your content to their learning needs ensures a resonant and engaging educational path.
Embrace Your Content Library
Your Tour Center is always in sync with your full interactive tour library, ready to showcase the heart of your digital storytelling. However, when it comes to the broader content universe you've cultivated, you'll need to bridge a few gaps to bring everything under one roof.
Uploading vs. URL Importing:
- Direct Uploads: Jumpstart your Tour Center with immediate media uploads. Each piece can be up to 99MB. Good when you’ve got the files on your local computer and need Tourial to host them.
- URL Imports: When size doesn't matter, but reach does. Import media via URLs for seamless integration without the file size ceiling. Ideal for extensive videos, complex interactive tours, or large documentations that live online.
By blending direct uploads with URL imports, your Tour Center becomes a more comprehensive, engaging, and informative platform for your audience.
