Hello,

I’m trying to add gifs to one of my posts but it’s bigger than 16 mb so it can’t be uploaded. When I try to embed it, it appears with image site’s logo, and it looks so bad.

When I try to embed, it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/l9fCZf0.png
I want gifs to look like this: http://www.buzzfeed.com/andyneuenschwander/dancing-paul-rudd

Is there any way that it’s just gif and no other thing?

Hello,
You can increase the maximum size that can be uploaded: http://screencast.com/t/xWphFY0aC
Please use this tutorial to increase size limitations: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
We recommend getting all the options green in the system status. You can follow the tutorial to increase the other parameters as well. Once you increase the maximum upload size you can add the gif to your post as any other image and it will display fine
Thanks.

Do you have any suggestion about SEO plugin? Or other plugins.

Hello,

The menu arrows were added with fonts, not icons. In order to change the graphic you need to install the font awesome plugin. Then you can use this css:
ul.sf-js-enabled > li > a > i.td-icon-menu-down:before{
content: '\f0d7' !important;
font: normal normal normal 17px/1 FontAwesome;

.sf-menu .td-icon-menu-down {
margin-top: -8px!important;
}

For a SEO plugin we recommend the SEO YOAST plugin.

Hi, just to pop in and suggest you to optimize gif before uploading it.
16mb size gif is ultra heavy for any website, and you should avoid uploading that big files.

But if you really have to use it on your website, try some online gif optimization tools.
Like http://ezgif.com/optimize
or http://gifgifs.com/optimizer/

Or maybe upload it on your dropbox or gdrive in public folder and embed its link on your website to stream it, which better then to host such a big file.

Cheers
