Description

ExtenderX is a complete WordPress site enhancement toolkit — one plugin that handles accessibility tools, scroll animations, site-wide motion effects, dark mode, navigation tools, content protection, marketing widgets, code snippets, maintenance mode, and more. Enable only what you need. Everything else loads zero assets.

It replaces a stack of single-purpose plugins with a single, well-organized dashboard covering three areas: Site Enhancements (site-wide tools for any theme), Block Editor Extensions (Gutenberg-specific block animations), and Custom Code (header/footer scripts and snippet management).

Site Enhancements

Site Enhancements work on any WordPress theme — classic or block, with or without the Gutenberg editor.

Appearance
– Dark Mode — visitor-facing dark/light toggle powered by DarkReader. Works with any theme, no configuration.
– Skeleton Loading Screen (Pro) — show a skeleton placeholder while page content loads.
– Preloader (Pro) — display a branded animation before the page reveals.

Accessibility
Tools that let visitors adjust how your site is displayed, so they can read and navigate it more comfortably. Everything is off until you enable it, nothing is fetched from an external service, and no visitor data leaves their browser. These tools are one part of an accessible site — your content, your markup and your own testing matter at least as much.

Accessibility Toolbar — a floating button that opens a panel of display controls, grouped into Text, Color, Content, and Motion & reading. Free tools: text size, a readable font, left-aligned text, high contrast, inverted colors, grayscale, a light background, underlined links, highlighted headings, hidden images, and paused motion.
Quick profiles — Low vision, Dyslexia, Focus and Seizure safe each switch on a matching set of tools in one click, using only the tools you have enabled. Press again to clear.
Keyboard shortcut — visitors open and close the panel with Alt+A from anywhere on the page. A badge on the button shows how many settings are active, and Reset all clears them.
Remembered preferences — a visitor’s choices follow them from page to page, stored in their own browser. No cookies, nothing identifying recorded, and nothing sent to your server.
Skip to Content Link — lets keyboard visitors jump past the header straight to your main content. Hidden until focused, and it moves focus properly rather than only scrolling. If your target selector doesn’t match, common landmarks are tried automatically.
Enhanced Focus Outlines — a configurable ring (color, thickness, offset) around whichever element the keyboard is on, for themes that hide or wash out the browser default. Appears for keyboard input, not mouse clicks.

You choose which side the button sits on, how far up from the bottom, which tools appear, and whether the profiles row and the shortcut are offered.

Pro adds:
– Seven more visitor tools — reading guide, reading mask, text spacing, content zoom, a dyslexia-friendly typeface, a large cursor, and saturation control.
– Toolbar branding — button and icon colors, four icon choices, button size, stacking order, and hide-on-mobile.
– Accessibility Statement — generates an editable draft page describing the steps you take, what the site offers, what is still unfinished, and how visitors can report a problem. Written as prompts for you to complete; it asserts nothing about meeting any particular standard or law on your behalf.
– Alt Text Audit — lists images in your media library with no alternative text, paginated for large libraries, with a link to fix each one.

The toolbar is itself keyboard operable, announces changes to screen readers, and honors the visitor’s “prefers-reduced-motion” system setting — motion starts paused for those visitors, and turning that off will not force animations back on for them.

Navigation & Scrolling
– Back to Top Button — floating button with style presets, icon, position, and visibility options.
– Scroll to Bottom Button (Pro) — one-click jump to the bottom of the page; stacks neatly alongside the Back to Top button.
– Sticky Header — keeps your navigation fixed at the top of the viewport as visitors scroll.
– Sticky Footer Bar — persistent footer strip across all pages.
– Scrollbar Styler (Pro) — customize the browser scrollbar color and appearance.
– Smooth Scrolling (Pro) — buttery page scrolling powered by Lenis.
– Scroll Progress Bar — visual reading-progress indicator at the top of the page.
– Scrollspy — automatically highlights the active navigation link based on scroll position.
– Smart Scroll — auto-hides the header when scrolling down, reveals it when scrolling up.

Motion & Animations (Beta)
– Site-Wide Animations — set one reveal style and it applies automatically to your content across every page. Supports block-type targeting, stagger delays, and per-page or per-block overrides directly in the editor. Free.
– Scroll-Linked Effects (Pro) — parallax drift and scroll-progress scrub for elements you target.
– Import / Export (Pro) — back up your Motion configuration or move it between sites.

Seasonal Effects
Free: Winter Snow, Autumn Leaves, Falling Hearts.
Pro: Spring Petals, Summer Bubbles, Christmas Lights, Fireworks, Halloween Bats, Ramadan Lanterns, Black Friday & Cyber Monday confetti, Weather, Particle Background, Fireflies, Twinkling Stars, Floating Emojis, Floating Shapes, Light Beams, Mouse Trail.
All effects automatically honor visitors’ “prefers-reduced-motion” system setting.
Pro adds scheduling by date range, page targeting, and per-effect color customization.

Content Protection
– Disable Right Click — prevent the browser context menu.
– Disable Copy — prevent text selection and copying.
– Disable Inspect — deter access to browser developer tools.
– Disable Image Drag — stop images being saved by drag-and-drop.
– Hide Admin Bar on Frontend — hide the WordPress toolbar for logged-in visitors.

Marketing
– Announcement Bar — dismissible top or bottom banner for offers and notices.
– Floating CTA Button — fixed call-to-action button that follows the visitor.
– CTA Pulse Animation — draw attention to any button with a pulse ring.
– Sticky WhatsApp Button (Pro) — floating WhatsApp chat widget.
– Global Countdown Banner (Pro) — site-wide urgency timer for sales and launches.

Site Access Modes
– Maintenance Mode — show visitors a maintenance page while you work; admins keep full site access.
– Coming Soon Mode — full-page coming-soon screen before launch.
– Age Verification (Pro) — require visitors to confirm their age before entering.
– Cookie Consent (Pro) — GDPR-friendly cookie consent banner.
– GDPR Notice (Pro) — compliance notice for EU visitors.
– Exit-Intent Popup (Pro) — trigger a popup when a visitor is about to leave.

Block Editor Extensions

Six extensions added to the Gutenberg sidebar panel for every registered block — core WordPress blocks and third-party block libraries alike. No replacement blocks. No shortcodes.

Entrance Animation — scroll-triggered entrance effects (fade in, slide up, zoom, flip, bounce, and more) with duration, delay, and easing controls. Animations fire once when the block enters the viewport.

Floating Animation — smooth, continuous looping motion for hero sections, testimonial cards, and promotional banners.

Tilt Animation — GPU-accelerated 3D tilt that responds to cursor movement, powered by VanillaTilt.js. Ideal for cards, images, and pricing tables.

Visibility Control — show or hide any block on desktop, tablet, or mobile independently using clean CSS. No duplicate content in the HTML.

Wrapper Link — make any block — group, column, image, card — fully clickable with a custom URL.

Tooltip — accessible hover tooltips on any block, rendered by Tippy.js.

All six extensions load conditionally: scripts and styles are added only to pages where at least one block actually uses them.

Compatible block libraries: Kadence Blocks · Spectra (UAG) · Stackable · Essential Blocks · Ultimate Blocks · Ghostkit · Gutenverse · GutenKit · Otter Blocks · Greenshift · CoBlocks · GenerateBlocks · All core WordPress blocks

Custom Code

Insert Headers & Footers — add HTML, CSS, or JavaScript to your site’s <head>, after the opening <body>, or before the closing </body> — without editing theme files. Perfect for Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, AdSense, and site verification tags.

Code Snippet Library — create, name, and toggle reusable HTML, CSS, and JavaScript snippets from a clean table. Each snippet has its own on/off switch; disabled snippets stay saved but stop running.

Pro adds PHP snippets, conditional display logic (show snippets on specific pages or post types), and scheduling.

Installation

In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins Add New, search for ExtenderX, then click Install Now and Activate. Or upload the extenderx folder to /wp-content/plugins/ manually.
After activation, open ExtenderX in the left admin menu.
Use the Quick Start screen to enable the modules you want: Site Enhancements, Block Editor extensions, and/or Custom Code.
Configure each module from the sidebar: Site Enhancements for site-wide tools (including the Accessibility tab), Block Editor for Gutenberg block extensions, Custom Code for header/footer scripts and snippets.
For block animations: edit any page or post, select a block, and open the ExtenderX panel in the right sidebar.

FAQ

What makes ExtenderX different from other animation plugins?: Most animation plugins only animate their own blocks, or require you to switch to a different page builder. ExtenderX does two things others don’t: it adds animations to every block you already use (any Gutenberg block, any plugin), and it bundles a full suite of site-wide tools — dark mode, sticky header, maintenance mode, seasonal effects, code snippets, marketing widgets — so you don’t need a separate plugin for each. One dashboard, one plugin, conditional asset loading throughout.
What accessibility tools does ExtenderX include, and are they free?: The core tools are free: an Accessibility Toolbar with 11 visitor display controls (text size, readable font, left-aligned text, high contrast, inverted colors, grayscale, light background, underlined links, highlighted headings, hidden images, paused motion), four quick profiles (Low vision, Dyslexia, Focus, Seizure safe), an Alt+A keyboard shortcut, remembered preferences, a Skip to Content link, and Enhanced Focus Outlines. Pro adds seven more visitor tools, toolbar branding, an Accessibility Statement generator, and an Alt Text Audit.
Does this plugin make my site WCAG, ADA, or EAA compliant?: No — and be careful with any plugin that claims otherwise. ExtenderX gives visitors control over how your site is displayed and gives you two tools for finding problems in your own content. Compliance depends on your content, your markup, your theme, and your own testing with real assistive technology. Treat these tools as one part of the work, not a substitute for it.
How do I add an accessibility widget to my WordPress site?: Go to ExtenderX Site Enhancements Accessibility and enable Accessibility Toolbar. Use the gear icon to pick which side the button sits on, how far up from the bottom, which tools appear, and whether the quick profiles row and the Alt+A shortcut are offered. Nothing loads on your site until you enable it.
Does the accessibility toolbar set cookies or send visitor data anywhere?: No. A visitor’s choices are stored in their own browser so they carry from page to page. No cookies are set, nothing identifying is recorded, nothing is sent to your server, and nothing is fetched from an external service. You can switch remembering off in the toolbar settings, though visitors then have to set their preferences again on every page.
How do I add a skip to content link?: Enable Skip to Content Link under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Accessibility and set Target to a CSS selector for your main content area — #main suits most themes. The link stays invisible until a keyboard visitor tabs to it, then moves focus into the content rather than only scrolling. If the selector matches nothing, common landmarks are tried automatically, so it keeps working if you change themes.
My theme hides the keyboard focus ring. Can ExtenderX fix that?: Yes. Enable Enhanced Focus Outlines under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Accessibility and set the ring’s color, thickness, and offset. It appears for keyboard and similar input but not for mouse clicks.
How do I find images that are missing alt text?: With ExtenderX Pro, open ExtenderX Site Enhancements Accessibility and use Alt Text Audit. It lists media library images with no alternative text and links to each one for editing; results are paginated so it stays fast on large libraries. When writing alt text, describe what the image conveys in context. If an image is purely decorative, leaving it empty is the correct choice.
Does the accessibility toolbar respect the “reduce motion” system setting?: Yes. If a visitor’s system asks for reduced motion, the toolbar starts with motion already paused, and switching that off will not force animations back on for them. The toolbar itself is keyboard operable and announces changes to screen readers.
Does ExtenderX work with any WordPress theme?: Yes. The Site Enhancements module (dark mode, sticky header, maintenance mode, seasonal effects, content protection, marketing tools, and more) works with any WordPress theme — classic or block themes. The Block Editor Extensions work within the Gutenberg editor and are compatible with any theme that supports the block editor.
Does ExtenderX work with page builders like Elementor or Divi?: The Site Enhancements tools (dark mode, sticky header, announcement bar, code snippets, seasonal effects, maintenance mode, and so on) work site-wide regardless of which builder or editor you use. The Block Editor Extensions are specific to the WordPress Gutenberg / block editor and do not add animation controls inside Elementor or Divi’s own editors.
How do I add scroll animations to Gutenberg blocks?: Go to ExtenderX Block Editor and make sure Entrance Animation is enabled. Then edit any page or post, select a block, and open the ExtenderX panel in the right sidebar. Choose a preset (fade in, slide up, zoom, flip, bounce, and more), set a duration and delay if you like, and publish. The animation fires once when the block scrolls into the visitor’s viewport.
What is the difference between entrance animations, floating animation, and tilt?: Entrance animations fire once when a block scrolls into view. Floating animation is a continuous looping motion — useful for hero images or feature callouts. Tilt responds to the visitor’s cursor position in real time. Only one motion type runs per block at a time.
Does ExtenderX work with Kadence Blocks, Spectra, Stackable, and other third-party blocks?: Yes. ExtenderX extends the Gutenberg editor globally, so every registered block — Kadence, Spectra, Stackable, Essential Blocks, Ultimate Blocks, Ghostkit, Greenshift, Otter Blocks, and all core WordPress blocks — automatically gets the ExtenderX sidebar panel with all six extensions.
Will ExtenderX slow down my website?: No. Every module uses conditional asset loading. Animation scripts only load on pages where at least one block uses an effect. Site enhancement scripts only load when their feature is enabled. Disabled features add zero CSS or JavaScript to any page.
What is Site-Wide Animations and how is it different from block entrance animations?: Site-Wide Animations (free, beta) lets you set a single reveal style — such as Flip Y — once from the dashboard, and it applies automatically to your content across every page without manually configuring each block. You can still override it per page or per block inside the editor. Block entrance animations, by contrast, are configured individually per block and give you precise control over each effect.
How do I enable dark mode on my WordPress site?: Go to ExtenderX Site Enhancements Appearance and toggle Dark Mode on. Visitors get a floating button to switch between light and dark. The engine is DarkReader and works with any theme.
How do I put my WordPress site in maintenance mode?: Go to ExtenderX Site Enhancements Site Access Modes and enable Maintenance Mode. Visitors see a maintenance screen; admins keep full access to the backend.
How do I create a coming soon page?: Enable Coming Soon Mode under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Site Access Modes. Visitors see a full-page coming-soon screen before launch; administrators keep full site access.
How do I add Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager without editing theme files?: Go to ExtenderX Custom Code, click Add Snippet, paste your tracking code, choose Header (<head>), Body Open (after <body>), or Footer (before </body>) as the injection point, and save. Works for Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, AdSense, and verification tags — no theme file edits needed.
How do I add an announcement bar or notification bar?: Enable Announcement Bar under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Marketing. Set your message, colors, position, and whether visitors can dismiss it.
How do I add a sticky header to my WordPress site?: Enable Sticky Header under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Navigation & Scrolling. Your existing header stays fixed at the top of the viewport as visitors scroll.
How do I add a scroll progress bar?: Enable Scroll Progress Bar under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Navigation & Scrolling.
How do I add a back to top button to my WordPress site?: Enable Back to Top Button under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Navigation & Scrolling. Pro adds a matching Scroll to Bottom button with the same style options; both can be active simultaneously.
How do I add a falling snow or seasonal animation effect?: Go to ExtenderX Site Enhancements Seasonal Effects and enable Winter Snow, Autumn Leaves, or Falling Hearts (all free). Pro unlocks Spring Petals, Summer Bubbles, Christmas Lights, Fireworks, Halloween Bats, Ramadan Lanterns, and more. All effects respect the visitor’s “reduce motion” preference automatically.
How does content protection work?: Under ExtenderX Site Enhancements Content Protection, toggle any combination of: Disable Right Click, Disable Copy, Disable Inspect, Disable Image Drag, or Hide Admin Bar on Frontend. Each operates independently.
Can I add a WhatsApp chat button to my site?: Yes, with ExtenderX Pro. Enable Sticky WhatsApp Button under Site Enhancements Marketing.
Does ExtenderX include cookie consent and GDPR tools?: Yes, with ExtenderX Pro. Enable Cookie Consent or GDPR Notice under Site Enhancements Site Access Modes.
Does ExtenderX support RTL languages?: Yes. ExtenderX ships full RTL stylesheet support for Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu, and other right-to-left languages.
How do I show or hide a block on mobile, tablet, or desktop?: In the Block Editor, select a block, open the ExtenderX panel, and use Visibility Control to toggle visibility per device independently. Visibility is applied with CSS — no duplicate HTML content.
How do I make an entire block clickable?: Enable Wrapper Link in the ExtenderX panel for any block and enter a URL. The entire block becomes a clickable link on the frontend.
How do I upgrade to ExtenderX Pro?: Click Upgrade to Pro inside the ExtenderX dashboard, or visit wpxero.com/plugins/extenderx/pricing.

Changelog

1.9.0 – August 30, 2026

New: Accessibility — a new dashboard tab with tools that let visitors adjust how your site is displayed. Free, and off until you enable it.
New: Accessibility toolbar — a floating button opening a panel of display controls, grouped into Text, Color, Content and Motion. Covers text size, a readable font, left-aligned text, high contrast, inverted colors, grayscale, a light background, underlined links, highlighted headings, hidden images and paused motion.
New: Quick profiles — Low vision, Dyslexia, Focus and Seizure safe presets that switch on a matching set of tools in one click, using only the tools you have enabled.
New: Visitor preferences are remembered from page to page, stored in the visitor’s own browser. No cookies, and nothing is sent to a server.
New: Skip to Content link — lets keyboard visitors jump past your header to the main content, and moves focus properly rather than only scrolling.
New: Enhanced focus outlines — a configurable ring around whichever element the keyboard is on, for themes that hide the browser default.
New: Visitors can open the toolbar with Alt+A, and a badge on the button shows how many settings are active.
New (Pro): Seven more visitor tools — reading guide, reading mask, text spacing, content zoom, a dyslexia-friendly typeface, a large cursor and saturation control.
New (Pro): Toolbar branding — button and icon colors, icon choice, size, stacking order and hide-on-mobile.

Fixed: Settings migrations could be skipped on sites whose recorded version was already current, leaving a pending update unapplied.

New (Pro): Scroll to Bottom button with the same style presets, icon options, positions, and visibility targeting as Back to Top. Both buttons stack neatly when active simultaneously.
New (Pro): Custom Code power-ups — PHP snippets, conditional display logic, and snippet scheduling.
Improved: All seasonal effects automatically honor visitors’ “prefers-reduced-motion” system preference.
Improved: Code snippets now use a dedicated database table for faster, more reliable storage. Existing snippets migrate automatically.
