Even if you do something with word replacement, having a GIF selector seems like a good idea, as it’s not limited to the set defined by admins.

On BCharts, they used discourse-reactions with custom emojis to have reactions with mini-memes, but they are not animated and are quite small.

Hmmm, thinking about it, there’s a theme component that does almost what you want (considering the scope that words are defined **only by admins** ): [Auto-Linkify Words](https://meta.discourse.org/t/linkify-words-in-post/82193)

I only changed it to create images instead of links, there isn’t even the pause/resume from Discourse Gifs, the rest of the code is absolutely identical to the original theme component, but you can install it if you want to try it out: [GitHub - renato/discourse-imgify-words: theme to auto imgify urls in discourse, almost the same as discourse-linkify-works](https://github.com/renato/discourse-imgify-words)

Example with

palmas, https://media0.giphy.com/media/26gsspfbt1HfVQ9va/200.webp

```

in the `words to imgify` configuration:

![Screen_Recording_2022-10-26_at_14_48_26_AdobeExpress](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/2/f/f/2ff4b9082036a2bb24a0086fa8948f2726230974.gif)

Note that it’s a theme component, not a plugin, so the installation should follow [this guide](https://meta.discourse.org/t/install-a-theme-or-theme-component/63682), and also because of this, the replacement is done **only in the web interface** ; in email or anywhere else the original word will appear.

Zero guarantee from my side, okay? It was a quick test and it’s something I might find useful in my community, but unfortunately, I can’t provide support or other customizations at the moment (for that, keep the suggestion to post in #Marketplace).
