Background video not working in drag and drop website builder software header area

Very nice job on your Mobirise drag and drop website builder software.

Thinking about using in school classroom to allow kids to build simple about sites.

Will you be adding new template blocks?

If there were more blocks, would be perfect for our use at school.

We'll add more blocks later, Mobirise is still in beta.

Biggest issue right now is the background video is not working. As stated not even showing up in HTML code when viewing source.

Please send us the link to this video, we'll check it. This feature should be working correctly.

The feature with the code area is available in the Code Editor extension.

Very nice job on your Mobirise drag and drop website builder software.

Using your Mobirise to create pages for my classroom (teacher). So far really like and want to buy more addons (bought the icon addon), but running into issue:

1) Background video not working in header area. Even after activating and entering in YouTube video, not showing up. Matter of fact it is not even in the HTML code of published site.

2) I go to drag and drop website builder software.com/history.html. No code area showing up as shown in.9 screenshot.

Version I have: 2.9

OS: Win 10

There is no issue with video, the software is not functioning correctly. Pls have your technical people attempt to place a youtube as header background. I bet they will find function is broken.

When clicking the gear icon -> Background -> Background Video and entering video URL, it does not work. Code is not being placed into final page when published.

Background images and color works, not the video.

Using the software in my school computer class and the kids absolutely love it! So easy to use and pages look beautiful:)

BTW: do you offer any type of "educator discounts" for the addons? Do you offer docs on creating addons?

I have checked that video background feature, and it works correctly. This issue may be caused by these reasons:

1) Your video has some privacy issues.

2) Your Mobirise app can't connect to the internet directly (your proxy/antivirus/firewall may prevent it).

We can offer a 35% discount for non-profits, but please note that the license if for one user (two computers), and it includes one year of free upgrades. Contact us if you want to receive this discount.

Later we’ll add functionality to create extensions for Mobirise, but it isn't supported at this time.

I have tried to get the background video working on two different installs, even had another teacher try it with same end results. Guess the software does not like teachers:) The video is not private, pretty sure I understand how that all works. I give up on getting that function to work. Ok though, great software.

I do have one more question…

I wanted to try out the video background feature, so I uploaded a video to YouTube, got

the code, and inserted it in the Block Parameters. It looks amazing on my computer! But

it does not show up on my phone or iPad. Is it not meant for mobile devices?

Thank you tons for your help and wonderful program =)

Unfortunately, an autoplay feature doesn't work on mobile devices. It isn’t related to the Mobirise app
