Video outside the viewport

Hi there,

As far as I can tell this is a change in how Google wants to see the video on the page:

https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9495631#indexing_status

It needs to be “prominent enough” and “seen when the page loads”. Which seems to indicate that they want the video above the fold (or at least near the top of the page) and not at the bottom, inside of the recipe card.

This blog seems to agree with that assessment as well:

Personally I wouldn’t worry about it too much. I’ve seen sites where users got this notice, but the video still showed up in Google’s Video Search Results. If you do want it at the top, you could do so by putting the [wprm-recipe-video] shortcode where you want it to show, and remove the video block from the recipe card:
