Divi Preloader

DiviMotion Preloader replaces the blank white flash and broken, unstyled layout before your page loads with a full-screen animation that fades away the moment your site is ready, giving visitors a branded first impression instead of an empty screen.

Divi Preloader Animation by DiviMotion

13 Built-In Animations

Spinning Circle, Progress Bar, Pulsing Dots, DNA Helix, and more, ready to switch on without touching a single line of code.

Match Your Brand

Upload your logo, set Background and Animation Color values, and fine-tune every pixel using the dedicated Custom CSS field for a branded look.

Zero Performance Impact

Built with pure CSS animations and a tiny inline script, fading out instantly once your page finishes loading without slowing your site down.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Preloader before you get started.

Is Preloader compatible with Divi 5?

Yes. DiviMotion is built specifically for Divi 5. It is not compatible with Divi 4 or earlier.

Do I need to activate anything before using it?

Yes. Enable Preloader once from DiviMotion → Extensions in your WordPress Dashboard, then configure it from there.

Is Preloader GSAP-powered like other DiviMotion features?

No. Preloader uses pure CSS animations instead of GSAP, keeping it lightweight since it loads before anything else on your page.

Do I need to write any code to use it?

No. Every setting — animation style, colors, logo, even Custom CSS — is configured visually from the DiviMotion Dashboard.

Is this a per-page setting or site-wide?

Site-wide. You set it up once in the Dashboard and it applies across your whole site.

Can I show just my logo without an animation?

Yes. Turn off Show Animation and only your logo displays while the page loads.

What happens if I don't upload a logo?

The animation still displays on its own. The logo is optional.

Can I restyle the preloader beyond the built-in settings?

Yes. The Custom CSS field gives you pixel-level control over any element inside the overlay.

Will the preloader slow down my site?

No. It's built with pure CSS animations and a small inline script — no GSAP or ScrollTrigger dependency, and no extra JavaScript libraries load.

Will I see the preloader while editing in the Divi Builder?

No. It's Visual Builder–safe and never renders while you're building.

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee; so joining is completely risk-free.
