Allow Video Background

Right now, the only way to get a video in Square Online is to have it look like a player. Only images can be used for section backgrounds. I would love the ability to add a silent looping video as a section background. And because of the way the "Embed Code" section works, you cant even do it there.

That’s a really cool suggestion & feature request @Floydman !

Hopefully Square can implement it!

Has this feature been enabled yet?  A section background video is common place on other hosting services and very compelling for customers/users.  I would like to know if Square supports this feature (the weebly platform did support it) and if not, when will it be supported?

 

Thanks,

Kevin

Hey @Kevin77 😊

 

I think I may have come across information about this the other day, but I may be confusing it with the ability to add a video to the item description page. 🤔 I'm still checking with the teams, but will let you know what I find out. 

 

The only work around I know of for now is to use a .gif file in place of a .png or .jpg file

Hello, my website is www.cuadro24.com and I have the weebly pro plan, a feature that it offered me, according to sales information, is that I can place background videos in the sections that I choose. This option to put a video in the background does not appear and I need to have this function. Could you help me?
