About Laser Loader — Stylish Progress Bar Preloader 1.1.0
Laser Loader is a WordPress plugin that adds a progress-bar preloader to your site. The idea of a preloader is to show a loading indicator while the page finishes loading, then reveal the content. This one is described as a stylish progress bar, in the CodeCanyon plugin range.
The listing says little about its settings, so the documentation in the package is the place to find which styles, colours and display rules it offers. The file on record is version 1.1.0, dated September 2021. Test it with your current WordPress and PHP on a staging site before you use it on a live site.
Requirements
- A WordPress site
Key features
- Progress-bar preloader
- Shows a loading progress bar while a page loads, then clears it.
- Stylish design
- Named and described as a stylish progress bar rather than a plain spinner.
- Plugin, not theme code
- Works from a plugin, so it can be switched off without editing your theme.
- Settings in the package
- The listing doesn't state the options, so check the included documentation for styles and controls.
Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Sites that want a visible loading bar as a design touch
- Owners who want a preloader without editing theme files
Look elsewhere if
- Sites chasing the fastest possible load, since a preloader adds code and does not make pages load faster
- Anyone wanting a full loading-screen builder with animations, which the listing doesn't mention
How to install Laser Loader — Stylish Progress Bar Preloader 1.1.0
- 1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
- 2
Upload it to WordPress
In your dashboard go to Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin and choose the zip.
- 3
Install and activate

Setup: using Laser Loader — Stylish Progress Bar Preloader 1.1.0
- Install and activate the plugin. Upload the zip under Plugins and activate it.
- Find its settings. Look for a new menu entry or settings page and read the documentation if you can't find it.
- Pick the bar style and colours. Match the bar to your brand colours, using whatever options the plugin offers.
- Check it on the front end. Load your home page in a private window and watch the bar start and finish.
- Test on mobile and slow connections. Make sure the bar clears properly and doesn't cover content.
Common problems and fixes
The loading bar never goes away
- Why it happens
- A JavaScript error on the page, or a caching or minification plugin delaying scripts, can stop the preloader from finishing.
- How to fix it
- Clear your caches, exclude the plugin's scripts from minifying or delaying, and check the browser console for errors.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.
“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”
- Why it happens
- The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
- Why it happens
- Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
- How to fix it
- Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.
Licence or “updates unavailable” notices
- Why it happens
- The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
- How to fix it
- Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.

Which options does it have?

Is the file old?
