    Good afternoon! I’d like to add video clips to the products. I could use some as featured images and others to add to the gallery. Is this possible? Thanks!

    Good morning! Thanks for the note, it was actually quite simple hahaha! I uploaded the test video to https://toyah.es/product/toyah-catch-the-wave/

    Now I have some questions:
    1. Is it possible to see a frame of the video in the thumbnail instead of the icon?
    2. Can I choose to feature the video for certain products?
    3. Can the video play in a loop?

    Thanks!!!

    Dear @molo,

    We hope this message finds you well.

    Please find below several options you may consider:

    1. You can review the first option here: https://prnt.sc/hA7MCElvfVuo
    2. You may refer to this option: https://prnt.sc/zMRKpvWEt87q. However, please note that since you are using the Elementor Archive Page Builder, this option may not function as expected. In this case, you may either disable the Archive Products Builder or customize the product image thumbnails using PHP, as suggested in the following forum reply: https://www.8theme.com/topic/add-tabby-and-tamara-item-icons-to-all-product-cards/#post-452408.
    3. We also recommend implementing the solution provided in this reply: https://www.8theme.com/topic/featured-product-video-breaks-singe-product-gallery/#post-358598. Unfortunately, due to the current level of access granted to your dashboard, we are unable to add the necessary code on your behalf.

    Should you have any further questions or require assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

    Best regards,
    The 8Theme Team

    Hello! Thanks for the detailed response.

    I’ll comment below, but I wanted to add that I’ll copy your username and password to access the website in the private area.

    1. I’ve enabled the option (screenshot attached), but as you can see, the icon is still displayed, not the thumbnail.

    2. From what I’ve seen, if I enable the option, the video would be used instead of the featured image whenever there is one. What I wanted to know is if there was an option to set it as a featured image only for the products I choose. If not, no problem. Thanks for the tip.

    3. OK! Done! I’ve applied the code for the loop using Code Snippets and it works perfectly.

    Hello @molo

    Could you please provide temporary FTP access? We will check what can be done to help you.

    For FTP access, we require the following details: FTP host, FTP username, FTP password, FTP port, and FTP encryption type. If you need assistance in creating these credentials, please reach out to your hosting provider who will guide you through the process.

    Kind regards, Jack Richardson

    Hello @molo,

    I hope this message finds you well.

    Could you kindly check the current status at your earliest convenience?
    Here is the frontend result for your reference: https://prnt.sc/xn4B6olPUFRB.

    Please note that we have made some modifications to the following file:
    xstore-child/woocommerce/single-product/product-image-builder.php.
    These changes have been implemented in the child theme to ensure they are preserved during future theme updates.

    Kind regards,

    Good morning! That’s perfect 🙂 Thank you!

    If I want to use that video as a featured video, would that be possible? I’ve looked for the option in the product editor, but I don’t see it.

    It would be an exceptional use, for example, for a new product that I’d like to highlight.

    Thank you!

    Hello @molo,

    We kindly ask you to review the second response in the following thread:
    https://www.8theme.com/topic/add-video-to-the-image-gallery-of-individual-products/#post-455103

    Since you are using the Elementor Archive Shop Page Builder, implementing your request requires additional customization. Please note that such customizations fall outside the scope of the support we provide through our forum.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Best regards,

    Hello! I didn’t quite understand at the time, sorry for the inconvenience. We’ll leave it at that then 🙂 There’s no budget for improvements since the client’s payment is already very, very tight… 🙁
