get the youtube video to work in the iphone
Hi on my wp website https://gmarried.com/ I am using builder and can not get the video to play via Iphone, it pulls in my header background image instead. Can you help?

Hi,
the short answer is: video backgrounds are not available on mobile devices by default (tablets and phones).
Due to the fact that it takes a lot of memory and resources to display the video on mobile devices, some devices and browsers don't even support it, so that's why we have the Replacement Image option that will load instead of the video on mobile devices.0 -
Ok well we go to sites that load just fine in our iPhone like https://hinge.co/ we would like to allow our site to offer this 1st not default to an image. I'm sorry, I should have asked it this way in the beginning. Is there a way?

Unfortunately, no. You can't have a video background on mobile. As a workaround, you can add a simple video element and display it only on mobile: https://jmp.sh/ljRO4L8

It is an example of what your video will look like on mobile if you add it as a simple element. This is a test page created in my project.

that element option is not available in the "view as mobl work area" how would I add that in that work area? currently that video is the background of the block, I dont want a 2nd block visible on a desk top.. thank you for your help!

The video element is added on the desktop view as a separate section and then from section settings, you can hide it for desktop: https://jmp.sh/rHHvJjz Therefore, it will be visible only on mobile: https://jmp.sh/F1kr5Jt
This is just an alternative that I have tried to propose. If you don't like it or it's not what you want, you can just ignore it ;).

I need your login details to be able to verify exactly what you have changed. I don't know what you did exactly so the page is now destroyed. Please send them to support@brizy.io

when you move things on th mobile veiw it moves everything on the desktop view as well... so everything is out of order because I was trying to get your "work around" witch is simply adding a video....

how do I "re order the blocks" in the desk top work space?

You can do that from the left sidebar. Please refer to this screenshot: https://jmp.sh/9jqGlJ5

Ya my side bar just has blank "start over" blocks.. There is no way to do this this way.. Are you in the mobile view? or the desk top view?

The way and option to re-order blocks is the same for all views. Can you please deactivate all your external plugins(except Brizy) and check again? It could be a conflict with one of them.

SquareSpace has figured out mobile video really well. If video doesn’t load, they have a failsafe backup static image that appears. But most WordPress and most Cloud solutions don’t do mobile video. I’m sure it’s for good reason. I do hope that Brizy one day can have mobile video as it’s a killer feature to have.
