Thanks a lot @htdat for the additional information. Downsizing the gif is a great piece of information I didn’t know about. Also I noticed that after a few days it actually was able to successfully create a gif on i1.wp.com

So in the future I’ll just make sure to keep my gif’s smaller and wait a day or two.

Thanks again for the support from all of you. Have a great day.

A small update:

If I convert the GIF to an MP4 and upload it, it bypasses the Jetpack caching and in the article the video will be loaded from the webserver the website is on (instead of i1.wp.com). However, it’s a little hacky, because WordPress let’s me upload and insert videos, but they don’t show up in the media browser after insertion.

So maybe even the GIF is _pushing_ the limits of WordPress?

Hello @csonnek

Thanks a lot for the quick turnaround and your response.

I don’t see why the resize is getting added, I think the default editor (Gutenberg?) adds it for me. I tried resetting the size multiple times and adding the GIF back in from scratch.

I’ll debug it some more and will update you on my progress.

I think I figured out the problem. I thought it was enforcing https, but for some reason it was inconsistent and I had to update the .htaccess. Now everything is no https and it works! ??

How did you do a relative path? For me I have to format it like this:

[vrview img="https://natur-tyrol.at/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/filename.jpg" ]

Whenever I try something like the following, it won’t work:

[vrview img="wp-content/uploads/2016/11/filename.jpg" ]

My website is currently set to enforce https.. so that might be part of the problem…
