Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview
About this plugin
W Auto Page Pre Loader shows a clean loading animation or your custom image before the page becomes visible. This prevents the blank-screen moment users often experience during load time. The plugin is lightweight, responsive, and works with all modern WordPress themes.
You can customize the loader image, size, duration, background color or background image, and preview everything directly from the admin panel. The loader fades out smoothly once the page is ready, ensuring a polished experience on both desktop and mobile.
