Customising the Quiz Loader and Animations

When a customer visits a page where your quiz is embedded, a brief loading animation appears while the quiz initialises. You can customise this loader — choosing a built-in style, uploading your own animated GIF, or changing its colour and size.


What the Quiz Loader Is

The quiz loader is a short animation shown between the page loading and the quiz becoming interactive. It typically appears as a spinner, dots, or another animated indicator in the centre of the quiz area.

The loader appears because:

  • The quiz script needs to load before the quiz renders

  • The quiz fetches your questions and settings from Quizify before displaying them

On fast connections, the loader may only be visible for a brief moment. On slower connections, it may be visible for a second or two.


Selecting a Built-In Loader Style

  1. Open your quiz in the Quizify editor

  2. Go to DesignLoader (or the equivalent section)

  3. Browse the available loader styles

  4. Select the one you prefer

  5. Save


Uploading a Custom GIF as the Loader

If you want the loader to display your own branded animation:

  1. In the loader settings, find the Custom GIF or Upload Loader option

  2. Click Upload and select a GIF file from your computer

  3. The GIF will replace the default loader animation

  4. Save

Use a GIF that is small in file size — a loader GIF that is itself slow to load defeats the purpose. Aim for under 100KB. A simple looping animation typically works better than a complex one.

Setting Loader Colour

If you are using a built-in loader style, you can often change its colour to match your brand:

  1. Find the loader colour field in the loader settings

  2. Enter a hex code or select from the colour picker

  3. Save


Setting Loader Size

You can adjust the size of the loader animation:

  1. Find the loader size setting

  2. Enter a pixel value

  3. Save
