Animations

For Plain Jane and Plain Jane Interactive

What You’ll Learn

  • How to enable page load transitions

  • How to control the speed of your page animations


About This Setting

The Animations setting in Plain Jane themes lets you control how your pages animate when they first load. This is a simple way to add polish and improve the visual flow of your site.


Page Transitions

Page Transition Animation

Choose how your page appears when it loads:

  • None — No animation

  • Fade In — Smooth fade effect as the page loads

Transition Duration

  • Adjust the time (in seconds) the animation lasts

  • Use the slider or input box (e.g. 1s, 2s) to fine-tune the speed

✨ A 1-second fade is a balanced choice that feels smooth but not slow.


When to Use It

Use the Fade In animation if:

  • You want to reduce harsh transitions between pages

  • Your site includes large background images or video

  • You're aiming for a refined or cinematic aesthetic

Avoid using if:

  • You want the fastest load times with no effects

  • Your store relies on rapid navigation between product pages
