Prevent MP4 videos from looping

Hello Victoria,
thank you for your reply. I have already been aware of the link you posted and even referred to that link in my first post from 04/24/2020. My problem is that I don’t know how to access and edit the files section.php and functions.php of my child theme. These are the two files, which I am supposed to change, right? But how can I access and edit these two files?
The problem I face is that I can’t find the editor under appearance. Under appearance I can only find themes, customizer, widgets and menus. There is no editor I could edit the files section.php and functions.php with.
Thank you very much in advance for further assistance.

Best regards!

Hi Victoria,
today I tried the following steps:

• copy enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/section.php file into enfold-child/shortcodes/ folder
• open section.php in child theme and find
  'video_loop' => true,
  and change it to
  'video_loop' => false,
• open functions.php in child theme and add following code:

  add_filter('avia_load_shortcodes', 'avia_include_shortcode_template', 15, 1);
  function avia_include_shortcode_template($paths)
  {
    $template_url = get_stylesheet_directory();
        array_unshift($paths, $template_url.'/shortcodes/');
  
    return $paths;
  }

Unfortunately after these changes the website was down and showed a fatal error. So I removed the code from the last step as I realized that a similar code existed already in section.php which was:

function avia_include_shortcode_template($paths)
{
  $template_url = get_stylesheet_directory();
      array_unshift($paths, $template_url.'/shortcodes/');

  return $paths;
}
add_filter('avia_load_shortcodes', 'avia_include_shortcode_template', 15, 1);

Now the website works again, but the videos are still looping!
How can I change the videos from looping? Please provide further assistance! Thank you!

Hello,

sorry for asking again, but I am still struggling to stop my self hosted, embedded videos using the media element from the avia page builder from looping. Could you please provide me with a step by step guide on how to prevent videos from looping?
Why is it so complicated?

Thank you very much,
Magnus

Hi Mike,

Sorry. My fault. Please see private content again.

Thank you so much for further assistance!

Hello Mike,
thank you for your further support. As I am somehow unexperienced with child-themes and changing the code of wordpress files, please find the FTP login credentials in the private content.

Thank you very much for futher held.
