Dawn Theme, Homepage, Video section, Height is too large

Topic summary

A user is experiencing an issue with the Dawn theme’s video section displaying too large on desktop, while appearing correctly on mobile. The problem involves excessive height/width of the homepage video.

Proposed Solutions:

  • CSS fix for section-level customization: Add object-fit: contain !important; to the Custom CSS of the video section, targeting .media>img

  • Base.css modification: Insert a media query at the end of base.css that sets max-width: 50% and margin: 0 auto for .video-section on screens wider than 750px

Current Status:

Another user joined with a similar issue, having copied multiple scripts and unsure which file to edit. They’ve added code to assets/base.css in theme.liquid but are uncertain if they should also paste it into assets/video-section.css. The discussion remains ongoing, with helpers requesting website links to provide more specific guidance.
