How can I autoplay a background video in the rich text editor in Webflow while also making it full width (100% width)?
To autoplay a background video in the rich text editor in Webflow while also making it full width (100% width), you can follow these steps:
Add a rich text element: Start by adding a rich text element to your Webflow page where you want the video to appear. You can find the rich text element under the "Elements" panel on the left side of the Webflow designer.
Select the rich text editor: Once you have added the rich text element, select the editor by clicking on it.
Embed the video: Inside the rich text editor, place your cursor where you want the video to appear. Then, click on the "+" icon located on the left side of the toolbar to add a new element. Choose the "Embed" option.
Insert the video embed code: In the embed element settings, paste the embed code for your video. This code should be provided by the video hosting platform you are using (such as YouTube or Vimeo). Make sure the video embed code includes the autoplay parameter.
Adjust the width: By default, the embedded video will conform to the width of the rich text element. To make it full width (100% width), you need to override the default settings. Select the embedded video and go to the style panel on the right side of the Webflow designer. Set the width property to 100%. This will make the video stretch to the full width of the rich text element.
Set the background: To make the video autoplay as the background, you need to set it as the background for the rich text element. Select the rich text element and go to the style panel. Under the background settings, choose the "Video" option. Then, select the embedded video from the dropdown menu.
Enable autoplay: Finally, make sure to enable autoplay for the video. Select the video element within the rich text editor, and under the element settings, toggle the autoplay option on.
By following these steps, you can autoplay a background video in the rich text editor in Webflow while also making it full width (100% width).
