Video autoplay on desktop and mobile - DAWN THEME

Store Design
, , ,

Topic summary

A user seeks to enable autoplay for a video at the top of their Shopify store page (using the Dawn theme) on both mobile and desktop, while maintaining the current video dimensions.

Proposed Solutions:

  • One suggestion points to a tutorial for adding autoplay video sections in Dawn v15 without apps, but the original poster reports this doesn’t preserve their desired video size.
  • Another user provides a code snippet modifying the <video> tag with attributes including autoplay, muted, loop, and playsinline to achieve autoplay functionality.

Status: The discussion remains open as the effectiveness of the code solution hasn’t been confirmed by the original poster.

Hi @steve_michael2 ,

Thanks for the reply but this doesn’t give desired outcome.

I am looking to keep my video size and introduce autoplay.
