FAQ

Do I need to install SiteOrigin Panels to be able to use the animation?

No, the fields will attached itself to existing widgets on ‘Widgets’ screen in WordPress. If you have SiteOrigin Panels installed, the ‘Animation’ tab will be added to SiteOrigin Panels ‘Widget Styles’.

How can I set Animate on Scroll settings globally without having to edit each widgets?

You can set the global settings through Settings > RA Widgets Animate > Global Settings.

I have Animate on Scroll already, how can I disable the AOS script on your plugin to prevent conflict?

You can disable Animate on Scroll scripts and styles through Settings > RA Widgets Animate > Script Settings.

I want to add additional animation values, how can I do that?

As of version 1.1.7, you can now add custom animation values using the built-in rawa_animations filter. Add the following code in your functions.php file.

<?php
add_filter( 'rawa_animations', function( $animation ) {
    new_animation = array(
        'custom-animation' => __( 'Custom Animation' ),
    );

    return array_merge( $animation, $new_animation );
} );

Then, add the following to your css file:

[data-aos="custom-animation"] {
    transform: skewX(45deg);
    opacity: 0;
    transition-property: transform, opacity;
}
[data-aos="custom-animation"].aos-animate {
    transform: skewX(0);
    opacity: 1;
}

Just for info it’s very cool but there is an error in this version 1.1.9 now, when we install it to look for css front-end: aos.css or in the directory named aos.min.css For the administrator, he looked for rawa-admin.min.js or in the plugins directory, his name is rawa-admin.js. I rename directly in the directory of plugins and after that works. 🙂
