Security and Accessibility Notes

AeroSpin CSS Loading Spinners uses a narrow spinner HTML allowlist instead of broad post-content HTML sanitization. Settings are normalized through a central schema before saving and before frontend output. action=acls_dynamic_css or legacy pure_css_spinners_dynamic_css ) to eliminate inline <style> injection, fully support strict Content Security Policy (CSP) environments, and leverage browser caching.

Frontend configuration is exported through encoded configuration data instead of misusing translation-only localization patterns for general configuration.

Spinner markup, colors, timing values, paths, selectors, and display options are sanitized before use. The loading overlay uses ARIA state updates and respects browser-level reduced-motion preferences. Visitors who prefer reduced motion receive a simplified animation experience.

Debugging and Output Safety

The plugin files are designed to avoid accidental output during plugin load and activation. Files should be saved as UTF-8 without BOM and should not include closing PHP tags. During debugging, AeroSpin CSS Loading Spinners can store a small option-based bootstrap debug log when WP_DEBUG is enabled.

This helps diagnose unexpected activation output without writing directly to custom log files from production plugin code.

Usage

• Install and activate the plugin.

• Go to AeroSpin Spinners in your WordPress admin sidebar (or Settings → AeroSpin CSS Loading Spinners ).

• Choose your preferred spinner style from the style grid.

• Customize size, color, overlay opacity, blur, timing, and exclusions.

• Save settings.

Excluding Specific Links

Add the class no-acls-spinner (or no-pure-css-spinner, no-cps-spinner ) to any <a> tag to skip the spinner for that specific link. Example:

<a href="/example/" class="no-acls-spinner">Example Link</a>

You can also use Exclude Link Selectors in the settings panel to skip entire groups of links using CSS selectors. Examples:

no-loader

skip-spinner a

• #special-link

Excluding Specific Pages

Use Exclude URL Paths to prevent the spinner from loading on selected paths. Examples:

• /contact

• /shop/cart

• /checkout

Each path should be placed on its own line.

Custom CSS Notice

Existing saved Custom CSS values are preserved, but the settings UI no longer encourages inline style injection.
