Using Video Backgrounds

[Malkiat]

Hi there,

I am not able to figure out how I could use a video background with Generate Press. Any help will be appreciated.

I would like to add a video background in a header or a section.

Kind regards,
Malkiat Singh

Hi there,

Currently you can only add them using the Page Header add-on.

First you need to add content into the Content tab, then you’ll see the video background tab.

Let me know if you need more info 🙂

Hi,

I see that I can upload a background video only in size up to 1MB. Can you please help me how to upload video larger than that?

Than you, Eva

Hi there,

do you mean the background image?

For video backgrounds I meant, sorry David.

Sorry my bad, it was fairly obvious on this thread.
The option was removed as there are so many options for video background and the old method didn’t really cut it. Instead we provide this how to:
