Animated Gifs

[rjaskelton1982]

I'm trying to add animated gifs to my product pages through the admin. I can add them, but when I view them on the front end they just come through as the separate images. How can I fix this?

copy file from the path 

 app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Product/Image.php to

path : app/code/local/Mage/Catalog/Model/Product/Image.php (create folders if necessary)

Find the line public function getUrl() and replace the function with:
public function getUrl()
{
$baseDir = Mage::getBaseDir('media');
$file = ('gif' == strtolower(pathinfo($this->_baseFile, PATHINFO_EXTENSION))) ? $this->_baseFile : $this->_newFile;
$path = str_replace($baseDir . DS, "", $file);
return Mage::getBaseUrl('media') . str_replace(DS, '/', $path);
}

Go to admin > Cache Management and clear all cache then Refresh product.

edit file on -> .\vendor\magento\module-catalog\Model\View\Asset\Image.php

on function getAbsolutePath($result) and  private function getRelativePath($result)

 check are file contain .gif or not?
if true then dont use cache image, if false use cache image.

=======================================

if (strpos( $this->getFilePath(), '.gif') !== false) {

$result = $this->join($result, $this->getFilePath());

}

else{

$result = $this->join($result, $this->getModule());

$result = $this->join($result, $this->getMiscPath());

$result = $this->join($result, $this->getFilePath());

}
