Uplink7 Skeleton Loader

Uplink7 Skeleton Loader is a high-performance, lightweight plugin designed to replace boring loading spinners or blank white pages with elegant, animated shimmer skeletons. By showing a structural preview of your content before it fully loads, you reduce the bounce rate and provide a much smoother user experience (UX) that feels faster. Key Features: 4 Professional Layouts: Choose between Classic (Blog), Ecommerce (Grid), Minimal (Text), or Hero (Image) styles. Smart Interaction Detection: The loader automatically disappears as soon as a user starts scrolling or clicking. Custom Branding: Upload your own logo to appear centered during the loading process with a subtle pulse animation. Auto Dark Mode: Detects the visitor's system settings and adapts the colors automatically. Exit Animations: Choose between a smooth Fade Out or a professional Slide Up (Curtain) effect. Admin Bypass: Option to hide the loader for logged-in administrators to ensure a fast workflow. Pro Features: Post Type Exclusions: Disable the loader for specific content types (e.g., only show on Products, hide on Portfolio). Page-Specific Exclusions: Hand-pick individual pages where the loader should never appear (perfect for Landing Pages or Checkouts). Premium Support: Faster response times and technical assistance.

Upload the uplink7-skeleton-loader folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress. Navigate to 'Settings > Uplink7 Loader' to configure your design. (Optional) Connect with Freemius to unlock Pro features.
