@eumikemasters what do you currently use for the preloader feature? It’s been a while since I use one. Do you know if it affects Google Pagespeed score? e.g. does it increase the CLS metric, and thus bring down the overall Pagespeed score?
@qriouslad Yes I am aware of how it affects the page speed score but some websites are a bit heavier or use cheaper hosting and take a bit longer to load anyway, so it’s nice when you have some animation playing while the page is loading.
I was using Sinatra’s Theme built-in preloader but I had to change the theme to Astra due to Sinatra lacking some features and I installed Preloader by Alobaidi since Astra shows the menu in some vertically messed up way while loading the page and I don’t really have the time to debug the issue, so the preloader is just a fancy way to cover it up, it shows up for merely a second and it does not leave a bad image of my website that otherwise people would see and have it imprinted in their vision.
I liked the Sinatra built in preloader because I believe it was using some CSS animations unlike this preloader that uses a GIF image, but I had to go with what I had available, and Sinatra had to go.

@eumikemasters Thanks for explaining further. This is well-noted for now. I see the plugin you referenced is using jQuery as well, which ideally should be avoided as a dependency on the frontend.
@qriouslad Thanks, I’ll look for an alternative solution
