div class overlays on video container, preventing it from being clicked

Question

.split-wrap is blocking the middle of the video from being clicked on.

Click on the play image, it opens up, then try clicking in the middle of the YouTube video, it's not able to be clicked.

How is that fixed so it is able to be clicked?

An easy CSS hack if you don't want to use JS for this would be adding pointer-events: none; to .split-wrap and adding pointer-events: all to the .jacketa .coversvg like so:

(function iife() {
  "use strict";

  function show(el) {
    el.classList.remove("hide");

  }

  function hide(el) {
    el.classList.add("hide");
  }

  function coverClickHandler(evt) {
    const cover = evt.currentTarget;
    hide(cover);
    const curtain = document.querySelector(".curtain");
    curtain.classList.add("slide");
    const thewrap = curtain.parentElement.querySelector(".container");
    show(thewrap);
  }

  const cover = document.querySelectorAll('.jacketa');
  cover.forEach(function(el) {
    el.addEventListener('click', coverClickHandler)
  });
}());

const videoPlayer = (function makeVideoPlayer() {
  "use strict";

  let player

  const tag = document.createElement('script');
  tag.src = "https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api";
  const firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
  firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);


  function onPlayerReady(event) {
    const player = event.target;
    player.setVolume(100); // percent
  }
  let hasShuffled = false;

  function onPlayerStateChange(event) {
    const player = event.target;
    const shufflePlaylist = true;

    if (!hasShuffled) {
      player.setShuffle(shufflePlaylist);
      player.playVideoAt(0);
      hasShuffled = true;
    }
  }

  function addPlayer(video) {

Answer 2

You can just change the z-index of .split-wrap in hide function

function hide(el) {
  el.classList.add("hide");
  el.closest('.split-wrap').style.zIndex = -1;
}

And turn back in show function

function show(el) {
  el.classList.remove("hide");
  el.closest('.split-wrap').style.zIndex = 'initial';
}
