Overview
A page that appears abruptly can feel unfinished, and a blank screen during loading gives visitors nothing to look at. LoftLoader Pro fills that gap with a loading screen you design. You can pick from a range of animation styles, then adjust colors, sizes, effects and text so the preloader matches the rest of your brand. Your logo or a short custom message can sit on the screen as well.
The settings panel lets you configure the preloader and preview changes in real time, so you do not need coding skills to get a result you like. Controls for delay and timeout set how long the screen stays up. You can also choose where it displays, including selected post types and pages, with an option to show it once per session. The progress percentage indicator has its own position and margin settings.
Features
- Multiple preloader styles: Choose from a range of animation styles for the loading screen, so you can find one that fits the tone and design of your website.
- Adjustable colors, sizes and effects: Change colors, sizes, animations and text from the settings panel to match your site's look, without writing any code.
- Custom text and logo: Add your own loading message or place your logo on the preloader so the screen carries your branding while pages load.
- Live preview in settings: The beginner-friendly settings panel shows your changes in real time as you configure the preloader, which makes tuning the design quicker.
- Delay and timeout controls: Set how long the preloader stays on screen, balancing the animation against visitors' patience as the page finishes loading.
- Display on selected post types: Choose which post types and pages show the preloader, and enable a once-per-session option so returning views within a visit skip it.
- Percentage progress indicator: Show a progress percentage on the loading screen, set its margins, and place it with one of six preset absolute positions.
- Responsive across devices: The preloader is built to display consistently on desktops, tablets and smartphones, and it works with all themes and popular page builders.
Best for
- WordPress site owners who want a branded loading screen
