Hello,
Im looking to change a section from image with text to video with text. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Topic summary
A user is attempting to convert an image-with-text section to video-with-text in the Sense Shopify theme. Multiple solutions were proposed:
Initial Approaches:
- Using a pre-built section from section.store
- Custom code implementation via theme editor
Main Solution Implemented:
A developer provided complete Liquid code for a custom video-with-text section, including schema settings for video uploads, YouTube/Vimeo URLs, text blocks, and buttons.
Technical Issues Encountered:
- Video initially wouldn’t play due to a CSS class conflict (deferred-media__poster-button)
- After fixing playback, the video thumbnail doesn’t fill the container properly
Current Status:
The discussion remains unresolved. Despite applying CSS fixes to make the video placeholder full-width, the user reports the video still doesn’t display correctly in the container. The developer provided CSS targeting .video-section__poster.deferred-media__poster img with width: -webkit-fill-available, but the issue persists on the preview site.
The conversation includes code snippets, screenshots demonstrating the sizing problem, and multiple preview site links for troubleshooting.

hi @StarMintz
To change the section from Image with Text to Video with Text in the Sense theme, you can achieve this by customizing your theme settings or using custom code.
Could you please confirm if you’re comfortable adding custom code or if you’d prefer a no-code solution through the theme editor? Additionally, sharing the video URL or file format would help us guide you better.
