Hey there,

 

I'm looking to see how I can set the video to autoplay on the product page image/video carousel? The user currently has to click the play button to get it to play.

 

Store is using the Prestige theme.

 

Thanks!

Hi @darkelia19 

I’m Richard Nguyen - CRO Expert at PageFly, I’d like to suggest this idea:

 

You can autoplay a video on Shopify by using the video tag and adding the autoplay attribute to it

You can also autoplay a video by using the iframe tag and adding the allow=”autoplay” attribute to it. 

For example:

Add

autoplay: true,

to where line 73 is in my screenshot in the media.liquid file.

 

Hope you find my answer helpful!

Regards,

Thanks for the response! The issue is that my store is on the Prestige theme so there's no media.liquid file.

 

Any other ideas here?
