Play button in video background

[baywestchurch1]

I am using a video background in the first section under my nav bar. The video is hosted on Vimeo. I used it in the LayerSlider plugin to get a fullsized video.

It has an annoying play/pause button in the middle of it. I’ve checked all the settings on Vimeo to rid of the video of the button, but it won’t go away.

Anyone have any idea how to get rid of that and just have a looping background there?

Hi @baywestchurch1,

Thank you for writing in, the video you have now on your page is an embedded video (not a background-video) so it does have the play button, and on top of that it does not cover the entire section, it has a black area on both sides.

Please get your video URL and place it on the section’s background-video option instead.

In Vimeo, only the Premium, Business, and PRO members have access to the direct links.

Thanks! It’s working great now. Sorry about that…makes sense.
