Hi!
I’m trying to set up something similar to what you can achieve with these plugins, so I can show a nice widget for 2 seconds or so while my website loads:
I followed these guides:
You can see a demo here:
https://ihatetomatoes.net/demos/css3-preloader-transition/
My only issue is that the animation gets stopped the moment the content of my website starts loading and I’m not being able to manually set a the amount of time that I need the animation to be displayed.
I added this HTML code on a “Content Area” element:
<div id="loader-wrapper">
<div id="loader"></div>
<div class="loader-section section-left"></div>
<div class="loader-section section-right"></div>
</div>
This CSS on the corresponding CSS section:
#loader-wrapper {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
z-index: 100000;
}
#loader {
display: block;
position: relative;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
margin: -75px 0 0 -75px;
border-radius: 50%;
border: 3px solid transparent;
border-top-color: #3498db;
-webkit-animation: spin 2s linear infinite; /* Chrome, Opera 15+, Safari 5+ */
animation: spin 2s linear infinite; /* Chrome, Firefox 16+, IE 10+, Opera */
z-index: 100001;
}
#loader:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: 5px;
left: 5px;
right: 5px;
bottom: 5px;
border-radius: 50%;
border: 3px solid transparent;
border-top-color: #e74c3c;
-webkit-animation: spin 3s linear infinite; /* Chrome, Opera 15+, Safari 5+ */
animation: spin 3s linear infinite; /* Chrome, Firefox 16+, IE 10+, Opera */
}
#loader:after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: 15px;
left: 15px;
right: 15px;
bottom: 15px;
border-radius: 50%;
border: 3px solid transparent;
border-top-color: #f9c922;
-webkit-animation: spin 1.5s linear infinite; /* Chrome, Opera 15+, Safari 5+ */

@-webkit-keyframes spin {

}
100% {

#loader-wrapper .loader-section {

-webkit-transition: all 0.7s 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.645, 0.045, 0.355, 1.000);
transition: all 0.7s 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.645, 0.045, 0.355, 1.000);
}
#loader-wrapper.loader-section.section-right.loaded {
-webkit-transform: translateX(100%); /* Chrome, Opera 15+, Safari 3.1+ */
-ms-transform: translateX(100%); /* IE 9 */

-webkit-transition: all 0.7s 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.645, 0.045, 0.355, 1.000);
transition: all 0.7s 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.645, 0.045, 0.355, 1.000);
}
#loader.loaded {
opacity: 0;
-webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease-out;
transition: all 0.3s ease-out;
}
#loader-wrapper.loaded {
visibility: hidden;
-webkit-transform: translateY(-100%); /* Chrome, Opera 15+, Safari 3.1+ */
-ms-transform: translateY(-100%); /* IE 9 */
transform: translateY(-100%); /* Firefox 16+, IE 10+, Opera */
-webkit-transition: all 0.3s 1s ease-out;
transition: all 0.3s 1s ease-out;
}
And this JQuery on the corresponding JS section:
jQuery(document).ready(function sh_loader_timeout() {
setTimeout(function(){
jQuery('#loader').addClass('loaded');
jQuery('#loader-wrapper').addClass('loaded');
}, 4000);
});
(Yes, 4 seconds is much but it’s just to try it out).
Here you can see my test site, where the loading animation shows itself for just a fraction of a second:

I hope you can help me!
Thanks!
