    I tried to upload video for my header but unfortunately it’s too big. So I just embedded a youtube file instead. But When you visit my site the video will automatically play but the sound is not working. I check youtube but when I play the video there the music is working. Can you help me with this? If there’s no solution to this

    I’ll just add the video at my welcome page but how would I make the video play automatically?

    Thanks,
    Eliez B

    The header video is used as a decorative element and not as a video player. This feature is not available in WordPress. Please follow this link to know more about header videos in WordPress

    To make the video play automatically you will need to add autoplay=1 after the ? sign while embedding the video. Example code for your video with autoplay enabled.
    <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/e4S9zQURKng?autoplay=1&rel=0&controls=0&showinfo=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" data-mce-type="bookmark" class="mce_SELRES_start"></span></iframe>
    Let me know if this resolves your issue.
