Video background – no loop option?

I have a video background – I added using the video background feature on the ‘Hero’ widget – on this page that’s supposed to play in a loop. I can’t find any option to make it loop, though. There doesn’t seem to be any settings for that, and I can’t find anything that looks like it’d be worth experimenting with in the Plugin Editor.

As far as I can tell it’s just one word, ‘loop’, that needs to be added to the tag. I just can’t find what’s generating that HTML on the page or how to manipulate it.

Do I need to upgrade to pro, to get this option? It seems pretty basic, if you want video backgrounds you’re likely going to want them to loop…

    Hi Roy

    Thanks for reaching out. Apologies for the confusion. You can loop the slide background videos from the Slider Control section. See the last setting: Loop slide background videos. I asked our developer about this, at the time of implementation there was an issue setting different loop settings per slide. As a result, a global setting was added.
