Hi guys!
My store is launching soon: www.korsaclo.com
Password: jerjeff to enter
The main page currently looks like this
I want to know how to add the video as an embed youtube video but without the youtube buttons to play, pause, volume adjust etc. Basically remove anything popping up when the mouse hovers over
The video must be playing but in the background, play automatically and just be part of the website instead of like a video that looks like it's got the embedded code pasted.
Similar to this website
https://www.earlscollection.com/
I have the Retina theme.
Thanks for your help!
In order to add a video background to your homepage similar to that website. Follow these steps below
Duplicate your theme first in case you mess something up.
Step 1: Go to your store Admin dashboard ->Online store->Actions->Themes
Step 2: Add a new section to Sections
Step 3: Replace the default code with the code on this link (sorry, the code's a bit long so I store it on Github)
Step 4: Add background video section to the homepage
Step 5: Upload your video to Shopify files
From your store admin dashboard, navigate to Settings -> Files then upload your video here.
Note: you need to have a Shopify plan in order to upload video
Step 6: Copy video link
Step 7: Navigate to the video background section, paste the video link and hit save
Step 8: Go to your website again to check

Hello TuanLe,
Great tutorial. It worked for me to upload a video. However, the aspect ratio is limited to 800x500 it seems. I've tried manipulating some of the code to get it wider but I can't get it to change. Could you please provide a modification for a something more like 1080 x 250 please?
Hi! i can't copy and paste the code
