[Chief]

I've found the issue with Giphy giveing an error when you try to attach a Gif in a post.

This should be fixed during the week.

Not working currently.

Not working currently.

Currently working sporadically - they recently changed the payment requirements to boost revenue. There are certain amount calls we can make per day or week. Beyond that they block the action and as such giphy doesn't work. We are considering what we will do and may just turn it off. This wont stop people posting gifs.

Could see if there is an addon for others like Tenor.

They had an API application process - gave 5 days as the turnaround time. I chased it up for months.

Now they want to charge for anything over 100 calls per hour.

Still happening regularly for me. This is with Firefox on Android FYI.

Yep they limit us to 100 gif posts an hour.

This might be worth looking at. Getting lots of users complaining.

Definitely effects the BF "experience" not being able to post gifs when melting about the footy.

Xenforo are looking at a new GIF embed setup for the next version which would fix this. At some point.

Right now we get 100 calls per hour unless we pay $US1200 per year.

Which we aren't doing.

Having a massive impact on the experience on SC Board. Use of gifs is very common. Hopefully there’s an alternative soon as have seen a dropoff of interactions/posts in the game day threads.
