Adjusting main animation

On the page on how to adjust the homepage animation is a video. This process is parallel to that process just with the gondwana.gif instead of homepage.gif.

In order to update the gondwana page animation we would:

  1. Delete the old gondwana.gif in the src/assets/img folder.
  2. Upload a new gondwana.gif into the src/assets/img folder.

Deleting the old animation

In order to delete the old gondwana.gif, we would go the main page. Direct into the src/assets/img folder.

src folder assets folder img folder

Then we direct towards to the gondwana.gif file.

We click the delete icon in the upper right corner.

Delete

We will be redirected to a page where we can fill out the following form.

Delete

  1. Enter an appropriate title e.g. Delete gondwana animation
  2. Make sure the Commit directly to the main branch is checked.
  3. Click the Commit Changes button.

Now the old animation is deleted.

Uploading a new animation

In order to upload a new animation we again go to the src/assets/img folder.

Now we are going to click Add File. This will open a dropdown menu in which we are going to click Upload Files.

This will open a new page, where we can click the choose your files link to open the file explorer and upload a gondwana.gif.

IMPORTANT NOTE: make sure the file is actually called gondwana.gif otherwise it will not work

Then we again come to the Commit Changes section.

Commit changes

  1. Enter an appropriate title e.g. New gondwana animation
  2. Make sure the Commit directly to the main branch is checked.

Note: The demo page may take a while to properly update after this. It may first fail to load the animation. After around 10 minutes this should be fixed however.
