Add GIF Images in WordPress
To add GIF images in WordPress at first create or open your page/post. Now, add an image block in the editor.
Click on the Upload button and upload your gif file.
Your GIF file will be inserted, but by default, WordPress shows a smaller size. If you want to view it in full size or change the size, you can set the alignment or change the aspect ratio as you like.
If you set the alignment to full width, the GIF will cover the whole screen.
If you wish for a different size, then keep the alignment as ‘None’. Then change the aspect ratio as you like.
You will get a result similar to the one below.
