video with autoplay and loop like before

[kaysermark]

Dear all, sorry for my bad english. I am a beginner in HTML, CSS, PHP and just like, know how to klick 😉

About three weeks ago the video in the header has been autostarting, autoloop and full width. I think after updating to latest version these features got lost / became disabled.

The page looked nice before, now I have to remove the video. But maybe there is a possibility to restore these settings.

Thank`s for the Tip for a Dummy

Best, Mark

Hello, Mark!

Can you describe on what way you inserted your video earlier? (Have you use some plugin?)

Have you tried to re-upload your video in Customizing ▸ Header ▸ Header Video?

Thanks, yes, I did try to re-upload. But no autorun and loop. Before even the controls where disabled. I just uploaded the video in Media and did not use any plugins, Best regards, Mark

Hello Mark!

Unfortunately, currently, the only way to have the Autoplay and loop video on the header is to first, upload it to youtube then copy the video embed code into:
Customizing ▸ Header ▸ Header Video… Embed… embed video text field.
please check next articles to enable the Autoplay and loop on the video:
