Site Update: Disabling GIFs option now available
Hi, community!
We appreciate your ongoing feedback on how we can improve 7 Cups! We’ve been filing away all of your input and will be doing our best to give you a heads up in this subforum as we go. That said, we’ve got a lot of upcoming changes in the pipeline, one of the biggest ones being restructuring the forums.
Officially live, we’ve implemented a new feature to disable GIF animations on-site, particularly in the forums and main feed.
if you go into My Settings and select this, gifs/animations would only run when you click on them, which should make the forums/feed spaces less distracting. Please note that this only works for GIFs attached using the Tenor tool built in on-site, so GIFs added manually through other methods will not be disabled at the moment. If you encounter any issues, please detail them in the replies.

This is a great update, H, thankyou! ❤
@Heather225 Awesome, thanks!
Thanks H💗

Can someone educate me please? What's the problems with GIF's? Are they all going to be disabled, I think they're kind of fun and uplifting.
Thanks
@IsayUncle They can be a medical trigger or distracting. It's just an option someone has in their settings to disable them. SO if you want to see them, you can. If you want to turn them off, you can.

Thank you Affy, I hadn't considered that but absolutely understand how that can be the case. That's great then, for people to have that option. Awesome👍
@Heather225
Thanks for the update 👍
Thank you very much! This was a super fast implementation, I'll try it out right now :)
@Heather225 that's great. If it's working only for images hosted on tenor I would suggest to make it clear in the settings to avoid confusion.
Thank u so much!
