How to Post a .gif Image in Facebook

The latest news says that now you can post GIF image in Facebook. This was possible because of a famous search engine for GIF, that is Giphy. In Giphy, you will find GIF's of all categories which you can post in Facebook accordingly. Basically, Giphy (a search engine for GIFs), created a code that makes GIFs actually loop on Facebook.

It works simply like posting a link to a video. Either copy paste the URL of the page for the GIF you've selected, or embed straight to Facebook from that page from the portion where it says "share GIF." It will look just like a video upload to your Facebook wall or Newsfeed, in that you'll see a play button on the embed. When you press play, You have a GIF.


In this post, I will help you for adding or posting GIF images in Facebook, It is very simple.

How it Works:

  • Login to Facebook account.
  • Go to Giphy's website and Select the image.
  • Either copy-paste the URL of the page of GIF that you have selected Or there is an option for embedding the GIF in Facebook.
  • In this it will ask you to "Share GIF" and You have to share it.
  • The result will be on the Facebook's News Feed. The GIF will play.

In the News Feed, when you embed the code of GIF image or copy-paste the URL of the selected images page, the image gets added. But does it play? Does it animate?

If it plays then ok, if not then go to the next step-:

May be you must have clicked the "Play" button in the image and it has turned out to be just a blank page which has Giphy in between or something like that. Right?

The trick is just click the blank image that gets replaced in the place of the image when you clicked for 4 to 5 times at the same place. Then wait for few seconds, the image will play successfully.

Now, after that you have known the details, have you tried posting in your News Feed? Try that , it is amazing experience. I require some experiences of all you people out there who are reading this post. Comment to this post will help others to know your experiences. If you still have some problem then just mention below. Thanks :)

How To Contact Facebook Directly?

As you’ve probably figured out by now, it’s not easy to find out how to contact Facebook about your specific problem. I always start in the Help Center and then typically proceed to Something’s Not Working. From there, sometimes Facebook gives you a form you can fill out to contact them about your specific problem.
