Use Media Banner for a hero that can play a video, such as a new season film at the top of your home page. Each piece of content has a desktop and a mobile image, can add a desktop and a mobile video, and links to one page.

​
Content per schedule

One banner at a time. Each banner you schedule has its own Start date and End date, and the block shows the one that’s live now. See When content goes live.

​
What you schedule in Block Hero

On the block’s page, click Schedule content. The Schedule Media Banner content form has these fields. Content Name, Desktop Image and Mobile Image are required.
Media Banner block page > Schedule content > Schedule Media Banner content: the Scheduling, Images, Videos and Link groups

​
How videos play

  • Videos start on their own, with no sound, and loop. On phones they play in the page, not full screen.
  • The desktop video plays on screens 750 pixels wide or more, and the mobile video on narrower screens.
  • With only a desktop video, phones show the Mobile Image. With only a mobile video, desktop shows the Desktop Image.
  • Before a video plays, the image for that screen shows in its place: the Desktop Image on desktop, the Mobile Image on phones.
  • Use an .mp4 file.

​
What you set in the theme editor

Everything else follows your theme’s styling.

​
If the block shows a message in the theme editor

Media Banner shows these messages in the theme editor only. Shoppers see nothing in that spot.
