animated gif as masonry featured image

Hey Ushbot,
Typically WP brakes gif’s during the upload and re-sizing, try using the full-size option when choosing the gif for your masonry.

If this doesn’t help, Can you please include a admin login in the private content area and link to page so we can take a closer look.

Hi,
Thank you for the login, I found that the featured image that shows on your “work” page is a resized image that has no animation, while the image in the post is the full size image. Please compare the links in the Private Content area.
I see you have the plugin Simple Image Sizes installed, please try changing the size for the “featured_large size” to 0 (zero) this should keep it from being created and force the original image to be used. Then use the “Thumbnail regeneration” option to rebuild your thumbnails.
If this doesn’t help try doing the same for the “portfolio size” images, as that might be the image used since it is a portfolio item.

Best regards,
Mike

Hi,
I see that your thumbnail still uses a resized image, I think that if you play around with disabling the different sizes that you can find the correct one, or combination of ones to force your full size gif to show and play.
But I have also found that we can force the correct one to be used via css, I added this to your WordPress > Customize > Additional CSS, and now your gif plays:

#top.page-id-28 #av-masonry-1-item-693 .av-masonry-image-container {
    background-image: url(https://www.dev.your-site.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/museum-of-the-twentieth-century-zerza_anim_no.gif) !important; 
}
