    On our homepage we have a video but for mobile sites, we use the ‘Hide video on Mobile Devices?’ option and show a static image.

    However, when running the website through https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly/ they are not detecting the static image and throwing a major penalty.

    This appears to be a major issue because Google is openly saying they will penalize websites that do not have a mobile friendly version.

    Are you aware of this issue and do you have a solution?

    To be clear, on a mobile device (iPhone 6) an image is correctly being shown instead of the video. HOWEVER, Google does not see it this way and this is obviously WAY more important.

    We also did verify we are on the latest theme version 3.1.6.

    Hey!

    Your currently getting a javascript error which is interfering with the testing tool. It’s also preventing your video from loading. Deactivating the BWP Minify plugin and let us know when your done so we can take another look.

    EDIT: I went ahead and deleted your other post as it’s most likely related to this one.

    Regards,

    Yes, deactivating BWP Minify solved the issue!
