Hi, my video did play on my website and suddenly stoped playing. You can see it on the page, but it just doesn’t play.
It is externally hosted.
Example: https://www.blomjanseninbeeld.nl/ons-werk/
Hope you can help

Thanks, Ursela

    Hi, I Work Here

    Hi Ursela

    Thanks for reaching out.

    Perhaps try adding your videos using the shortcode as follows:

    [video src="http://localhost/siteorigin/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/small.mp4" autoplay="on"]

    The source URL can be found by viewing the video in the Media Library. The above shortcode can be inserted into a Text widget.

    The Video widget doesn’t support autoplay on or off so I’m not quite sure how or why that was functioning before.
