Hey Community,

 

I am working on a draft website to display my video work. Is there a way to get rid of the play icon (while keeping the "progression bar" at the bottom?

I'd be super greatful for any hints.

 

Best,

Leo

The classes changed when Squarespace introduced new video features. You should be able to hide the play button on these videos by adding the following CSS to Design > Custom CSS: .video-player .

.video-player .plyr--full-ui.plyr--video .plyr__control--overlaid {

@paul2009 Would you also know a way to make the "progress bar" only appear after clicking/playing the video?

It's a pity options for the video player Squarespace offers are so limited!

Gratful, Leo

I am happy Squarespace added this option to the "Video" blocks. (Version 7.1)

Player Controls > None

See image below:
