You’ve done the work of getting your 360 photos into the right format and resolution so they look great to you — and now you want to show your audience on the web. But how are you going to do that when most services currently assume all images are flat and non-spherical?

It took us less than five minutes to add these 360 photos to this Weebly website. We’ll show you how!

Never fear — it’s actually pretty easy! Here we’ll give you a step-by-step tutorial of how to embed 360s into your Weebly website using Momento360.

1. Download your photos from your 360 camera to your computer or smartphone
Your 360 camera will have options that let you connect to your devices to make transferring photos easy. Momento360 supports any 360 images (e.g. renderings, drone panoramas, etc.)

2. Sign up for a Momento360 account if you haven’t already
Momento360 is a free, easy, and private way to upload, view, and share your 360 photos and videos all in one place (all from your browser).

3. Upload the media from your device to Momento360
Sign in, click on the camera icon in the top right corner or navigate to the My Media tab. You’ll then be prompted to choose the media you want to upload. On desktop, you can select multiple files at once to upload.

4. Select the image you want to embed
From the My Media section, click on the photo or collection you want to embed. Then click on share button and select the “Share or Embed a Link” option:

Click the Share button, then select the “Share or embed a link…” option. Screenshot on Safari for OS X, but works on Windows and mobile devices too!

5. Generate the embeddable link
Click the “Create Link” button in the dialog that pops up.

Copy the link from the text box. You’ll use this in the next step. (You can preview it by clicking the “this link” hyperlink to open it in a new browser tab.)

6. In Weebly, add the “Embed Code” element to your page
You’ll find it at the end of the “Basic” subsection in the Build menu. Drag it onto the page where you want it:

You’ll then see a small box with a the text “Click to set custom HTML” where you dropped the element. Click anywhere on the box to bring up a dialog menu. Click the “Edit Custom HTML” button.

You’ll then be able to edit the contents of the box.

Now replace the Click to set custom HTML text in the window with the below code snippet (just copy and paste).

<iframe height="350px" width="100%" allowfullscreen="true" 
src="<<INSERT YOUR COPIED LINK HERE>>"> </iframe>

Next, take the link that you copied from Momento360 in Step 5, and replace the <<INSERT YOUR COPIED LINK HERE>> text with it. (Optional: If you want to adjust other options, like the height or width of the image frame, change the height and width values too.)

Now click anywhere outside the box to close it. Your 360 should now display on the page:

If nothing happens and you just see a blank box, you probably have a typo in the text. Click inside the box once to bring up the “Edit Custom HTML” button again and click it to display the embed code.

You can follow the same steps to embed a Momento360 collection on your Weebly site the same way:

Now when you hit “Publish” you’ll be all set!
