In XenForo 2.4 we are abstracting our existing GIPHY support out into a general GIF providers system and adding support for a new provider, KLIPY.
The new "GIF provider" option replaces the previous "Enable GIPHY support" option which, if already configured in XenForo 2.3, will be migrated to this new option. Setting up a new key in the KLIPY partner dashboard is simple with generous rate limits for testing keys. Applying for a production key is simple too with just a little bit of basic info and a short video demonstrating the functionality for the approval process (we will provide a video to use in the manual like we did for GIPHY support).
With KLIPY, as well as settings for filtering potentially inappropriate content, you can also specify which format the animation uses. You can choose between GIF and WebP with the latter producing smaller file sizes.
Once configured, the experience will be exactly the same as now. Clicking the GIF button in the editor will give you trending GIFs:
Searching works as you would expect:
That's it for today. Enjoy your GIFs!
