    Hi!

    Trying to follow the directions on the below link to auto play video as a background image on ipad but the suggested approach appears to no longer apply to current code. Can you provide an update? We’re using X and Cornerstone. Thanks.

    Hi there,

    Thanks for writing in.

    There is no Autoplay on mobile devices including tablets. Users can only play videos with their consent by interacting to it.

    Instead of background video, you should add it as normal video so user can interact with it.

    It’s mobile devices limitation, not with the theme or WordPress.

    Thanks!
