Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Features

  • Sleek, modern loading animation
  • Multiple animation options:
  • Default spinner
  • Animated SVGs
  • Custom images (including GIFs)
  • Displays your site logo or site name during loading
  • Smooth fade-out transition when the page is ready
  • Customizable colors to match your brand
  • Adjustable animation size, duration, and delay settings
  • Smooth page transitions between internal links
  • Responsive design that works on all devices
  • Lightweight with minimal impact on page performance

Usage

After activation, the page loader will automatically appear on your website. You can customize the following settings:

  • Enable/Disable: Turn the page loader on or off
  • Animation Type: Choose between spinner, SVG, or custom image
  • Animation Size: Set the size of your animation
  • Animation Duration: Set how long the fade-out animation lasts
  • Delay Before Hiding: Set how long to wait before hiding the loader after the page loads
  • Loader Color: Choose a color that matches your brand (for spinner animation)

Using SVG Animations

  • Select “Animated SVG” as your animation type
  • Upload an SVG file or enter the URL to an SVG file
  • For best results, use an SVG with built-in animations

Using Custom Images

  • Select “Custom Image” as your animation type
  • Upload an image or enter the URL to an image file
  • Animated GIFs work great for this option
