Loader Style

The spinner the theme shows while a block fetches more posts.

Under the last post of a Default demo listing, the Show More button mid-load: its label is hidden and the - Default - spinner shows in its place, outlined in orange

Where: Theme Options > Theme Design > Loader Style.

Theme Options with Theme Design expanded in the section list and Loader Style highlighted, beside the Loader Style panel: Loader Style on - Default -

Theme Design > Loader Style with the Loader Style select

  • Loader Style: the spinner the theme draws while the next batch of posts loads. That covers a load more button, an ajax filter and an infinite scroll. Pick - Default -, Thin Border, Rectangle or Dots. Its default is - Default -.

    • - Default -: a spinning circle that fades from Global Highlight Color to clear.
    • Thin Border: a thin spinning ring in the text colour.
    • Rectangle: a small turning block in Global Highlight Color.
    • Dots: three dots in Global Highlight Color that pulse in turn.
    • The loader shows only for a moment while posts load, so pick by taste. - Default - is fine for most sites.

It is one select, and it changes every loader on the site. To see it, put a block with a load more button on a page and click the button.
