For instance, animated GIFs don&#8217;t play, so it would be pointless to support that. In addition, you don&#8217;t want to accept files types that aren&#8217;t relevant to your blog or business. As an example, a technical support team for a software company probably doesn&#8217;t need to accept audio clips.<\/p>\n<p>So, go ahead and <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/best-image-format\/\">choose the file types<\/a> you would like to permit. After that, don&#8217;t forget to save your changes.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Test out the comment images and other attachments<\/h3>\n<p>Now it&#8217;s time to go back to the comment section on one of your blog posts. You should now only see the file types you accept and whatever display changes you made in the settings.<\/p>\n<p><img data-opt-id=2054063632  data-opt-src=\"https:\/\/mllj2j8xvfl0.i.optimole.com\/cb:c5QE.37290\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/How-to-setup-a-budget-friendly-online-business-WebTagg2.png\"  decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-26893 size-full aligncenter\" style=\"-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
