    Although my link will refer you to one of my posts i would like to achieve the following layout features across all posts of rebalance:

    1) Can I have also the option to upload a featured video which starts automatically when loading the post. I would also like to keep the option of featured image instead

    2) If I have Display Featured images enable you can see that the featured images is spreading nicely under the Header of the page but the text and other content blocks below are indeted quite a bit to the right. Is there a way to spread also the text across the content of the post as the featured image?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hi there!

    You wouldn’t be able to upload a video instead of an image but, as for your second question, try adding this piece of CSS:

    @media screen and (min-width: 881px) {
.single .hentry .entry-content {
    width: 100%;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 881px) {
  .single .hentry .entry-footer {
    width: 100%;
}

    I hope that helps ??

    Thanks so much! It worked. With regard to my first question I simply decided to start my posts with the video at the top so it gives the impression that is a featured video. See https://sonofmom.art/2019/11/20/w3-by-sonofmom-2015/

    One last question on this subject. Is there a way to force a video to start right away when a user opens a post. Instead of loading the page first and then needing to press play? I am just trying to make my Rebalance website look a bit more dynamic and with movement as by default its quite static but very well and simple to organize (which I like).

    Again thanks so much for your help.

    If you’re using the Block Editor, you would be able to set the video to start automatically directly from the right sidebar while editing the post:

    I am trying to not upload too much media files on my website otherwise I will run out of space fast. I am using embedded videos from youtube mostly. I guess there is not options for embedded videos. I think what you suggest above will be good for me if my video was uploaded to my media library. I don’t see this options for embedded video.

    Ah yes, that is correct, these options are for videos uploaded to your library.
    For embedded videos, you can use the embed option on YouTube instead and add the ?autoplay=1 at the end of the URL.

    For example:
    <iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/yYQ7fCaRqh8?autoplay=1″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

    This is not related to the theme though. You can also find plugins that will allow you to embed YouTube videos and can give you more customization options ??
