I can’t click the play button to open video posts on mobile devices

Last Updated by Louis SpostSeptember 2, 2026

A theme CSS conflict usually blocks the play button on mobile. The CSS rule that fixes it.

If you are unable to click on the play button to open video posts when you are on a mobile device, this is most commonly caused by CSS conflicts with your site’s theme. This can be fixed by adding the CSS rule below to WordPress Dashboard > Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS or your preferred CSS location.

@media all and (max-width: 640px){
  .sbi_photo_wrap:hover svg {
    z-index: -5 !important;
  }
}
