I’ve just started to build a new site and the background video plays perfectly on a computer. Sadly, it doesn’t play at all on mobile. In addition to that, the navigation bar/logo doesn’t look right on mobile either.
How can I fix this?
Hey Trent,
Autoplay videos are disabled on my mobile by default because of manufacturer restrictions (Apple doesn’t allow it for instance), but you can set a fallback image to the section in the option if you like. Otherwise you can duplicate the section and put different content for mobile only. You can control which section to display in the Screen Options tab.
Best regards,
RikardThis answer keeps being given but it’s no longer true. Video is NOT disabled on mobile, as evidenced here if you access on mobile:

This is done with the Smart Slider 3 plugin and it works great as long as the video is hyper compressed for mobile, ideally only 9 MB or so. If over 20 MB it will default to a fallback image.
In the United States, unlimited mobile data plans are becoming the norm, and auto-play video is quickly going to become the norm as well.
Hope this helps.

Hey Trent, once you build a slider with your video / etc, you just use a shortcode inside a text box like this:
[smartslider3 slider=24]
There’s also a button that’s added to the control bar (where bold, font selection etc appear) and you can choose from the available sliders you have built.
Their support is via email and is insanely fast. They also have a very active Facebook page with lots of Q&A. I have NO CONNECTION to them besides being a very happy customer and loving how it works with Enfold.
Cheers
