I have a question about the Ella theme for Shopify. Does it support autoplay for videos in the product page gallery without needing to click the play button? I’ve browsed a few stores using this theme, and I noticed that the videos don’t seem to play automatically.
I’d really appreciate your insight on this.
I just want to double-check before making a purchase. If the Ella theme doesn’t support autoplay for videos in the product page gallery, is there any workaround to enable this feature? I’m specifically interested in knowing if there’s a way to make this work with the Ella theme.
The Ella theme for Shopify does not natively support autoplay for videos in the product page gallery. By default, videos will not play automatically and require a click to start.
However, you can add a custom workaround to enable autoplay. This typically involves modifying the theme’s code (JavaScript and HTML) to allow videos to start playing when the page loads. You may need to add a snippet of JavaScript to the product page template to trigger the autoplay functionality.
It’s recommended to reach out to the theme support or a developer to implement this customization properly.
If you have other questions, I am willing to answer them more.
