Can Webflow allow a GIF to play only once instead of looping indefinitely?

Yes, Webflow has the capability to allow a GIF to play only once instead of looping indefinitely. By default, when you upload a GIF to Webflow, it will loop endlessly. However, you have the option to set the GIF to play only once by adjusting its animation settings.

To achieve this, you will need to access the GIF animation settings within the Webflow Designer. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you accomplish this:

1. Select the GIF element: Identify the GIF element within your Webflow project that you want to modify.

2. Open the Animation settings: With the GIF element selected, navigate to the right-hand sidebar in the Designer. Look for the "Animations" tab and click on it.

3. Modify the animation settings: Within the Animation settings, you will see a timeline with keyframes and animation options. Locate the initial keyframe, typically represented as a blue dot at the beginning of the timeline.

4. Change the loop option: Click on the initial keyframe and a set of animation options will appear. Look for the "Loop" setting and toggle it off. By turning off the loop, you are instructing the GIF to play only once.

5. Preview and publish your changes: To see the result, you can preview your site in the Webflow Designer or publish it and view it live on a web browser.

By following these steps, you can make a GIF play only once on your Webflow site, ensuring that it does not loop indefinitely. Keep in mind that this method only modifies GIF animations within Webflow and does not affect the original GIF file itself.
