GIFs not embedding in 4.2.1

Featured Replies

Are GIFs embedding for anyone else in this release? Youtube seems to embed fine, but external gifs do not. 

 

Testing here...

Hmmmm... works here fine. Not in my community. 

In my site gif works well too

PP. Test this in your site

I can get the gifs to embed by clicking "insert media from another site" but they do not embed when just pasting the url.gif into the post. 

Try removing a cache site

My site is double posting gifs and pictures.  Any ideas why?

Check in a default theme whether it is the same?

Still not embedding. Cleared cache, tried default theme, nothing helps. 

 

Also, just noticed images are not resizing either. They run off the page to the right if too large.

If I paste a normal giphy link to an image, IPS converts it to this

	<a href="https://media3.giphy.com/media/5xaOcLGvzHxDKjufnLW/giphy.gif" ipsnoembed="true">https://media3.giphy.com/media/5xaOcLGvzHxDKjufnLW/giphy.gif</a>

If I choose to "add image from url" , IPS converts it to this.. 

	<img alt="" class="ipsImage" height="342" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/5xaOcLGvzHxDKjufnLW/giphy.gif" width="500">

 

I am guessing IPS adding that "ipsnoembed="true" is an issue. I do have embedding turned on and youtube embeds fine. 

 

Any ideas anyone?

I have a ticket in for this, I think a few others do too.  I can reproduce it, IPS can't, even on my site.  They have escalated the ticket to higher support.

They'll fix it, they always do, sadly it's often (almost always) end user error.

 

I heard back on my ticket, this is supposed to be fixed in 4.2.2 which is not available.

Darn it, that was supposed to say NOW, not not available.  :rofl:

I just updated, sadly it's the same issue I had before.

Glad I'm not the only one.

Last night I cleared the cache on my laptop and the issue was still there.  This morning on my work desktop, I cleared the cache and the problem seems to be resolved.  Odd.
