Play video at homepage

Hello,

I followed the instruction and I’m able to create a post with video format and the thumbnail is created as expected.

The problem is when I click there, it goes right into the article. I don’t want that. I want people to click the video and start playing it at the home page.

How can I achieve that?

Thanks

Hi,

When you have a featured video, after pressing the play button, the video will be displayed on the post page, as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/AXiq8W4li Provide your website URL so I can take a closer look at your video section and also, so I will be able to provide a more accurate response.

Thank you!

Hello,

Thank you for your answer.

I’ve read docs and I always do my homework before asking support. That means: I know how the theme works.

Now, can you please take a second shot and take a look again to the question I made?

Thanks 🙂

Hi,

Sorry for my misunderstanding! Unfortunately, the theme does not have any such an option that allows you to display the video, directly on the homepage, without opening your post page and then, display the video, sorry!

Thank you!

Hi,

Unfortunately, the theme has not been designed to display the video directly in the module section, sorry! When you add a featured image, in the module will be displayed a simply covered image of your video and then, when you access that post, the video will be displayed, sorry! Notice that’s the default theme’s functionality! If you want to develop this section and add that functionality, you need to do it yourself through the code because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry! It’s not a simple task and if you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this case, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you!

Thank you!
