Pliitz Splash Screen

Make a memorable first impression with Pliitz Splash Screen. Create an elegant welcome screen, branded logo introduction or full-screen image splash for your WordPress website — without writing code.

Whether you’re introducing your brand, welcoming visitors or adding a seasonal touch, Pliitz gives you creative control over what appears, how it looks and when visitors see it. Design your splash, preview the result and publish it in minutes.

Design a splash that fits your brand

• Logo and text splashes — display your logo with an optional headline and supporting message.
• Full-screen image splashes — create visual introductions using images from your Media Library.
• Custom colours and gradients — match your site’s identity with backgrounds and optional contained cards.
• Typography controls — customise fonts, sizes, weights, alignment, spacing and text colours.
• Live visual preview — see your splash while you configure it, before visitors do.

Control the visitor experience

• Precise animation timing — adjust the delay, fade-in, display duration and fade-out.
• Smart display frequency — show once per session, day, week, browser visitor or on every page load.
• Multiple splash designs — create and manage named splashes, then choose the active site-wide design.
• Page-specific splashes — place a specific design on a page with the [pliitz id="123"] shortcode.
• Cache-friendly behaviour — browser-side seen-state handling works alongside full-page caching.
• Accessibility-conscious — respects reduced-motion preferences and leaves the site accessible when JavaScript is unavailable.

Get started quickly

Install Pliitz, open its setup wizard, create your first Logo / Text or Image splash, customise the appearance and timing, and activate it. No coding or page builder required.

Want animated introductions?

Pliitz Pro is an optional separate add-on with animated SVG, Lottie and web-video splash types, additional font options and scheduled splashes for promotions, holidays or special events. The free version has no time limit and works without a licence key.

Pliitz Splash Screen — make a good splash.

Pliitz Pro

Everything described above is in this free plugin and stays free. There is no trial, no time limit and no feature locked behind a key.

Pliitz Pro is an optional, separate add-on for animated splash types (animated SVG, Lottie and Web Video), your WordPress Font Library typefaces, and date scheduling with a calendar. It is a subscription: it renews automatically until you cancel, and you can cancel at any time. Pricing and the billing period are shown at checkout.

Pro is distributed from robart-illustration.eu and is not downloaded from WordPress.org. None of its code — no licence field, no activation, no downloader — is included in this plugin.

External Services

The free plugin makes NO external requests at all. It contacts no third-party service, sends no data anywhere, and does not track visitors. There is no licence key, no activation and no telemetry in this plugin.

Features that load third-party content when you choose to use them:

• YouTube video splashes (Pro) — if you set a splash to a YouTube video, the visitor’s browser loads the video from YouTube (youtube-nocookie.com) and the editor loads a preview thumbnail from i.ytimg.com. This happens only on splashes you configure this way, and YouTube may set cookies or log the request under its own terms: https://www.youtube.com/t/terms and https://policies.google.com/privacy

Pliitz Pro (a separate add-on, not distributed here):

• Pro is downloaded from robart-illustration.eu and is not part of this plugin. If you install it, it validates your licence key and checks for its own updates against https://robart-illustration.eu, sending the key, your site URL and the installed version. None of that code is in this free plugin — there is no licence field, no activation and no downloader here. Privacy policy: https://robart-illustration.eu/privacy-policy-rob-art-illustration/

No other external service is contacted. The splash typefaces are bundled with the plugin, so no font is fetched from Google Fonts or any other CDN.

Privacy

Pliitz stores no personal data and sets no tracking cookies.

Whether a visitor has already seen a splash is kept in that visitor’s own browser, using localStorage and sessionStorage under a key unique to each splash. It holds only a timestamp. It is never sent to the server, never shared, and is not readable by this or any other site. Clearing browsing data removes it.

The optional activation log records aggregate counts (how often a splash was shown) and does not store IP addresses, user agents or any visitor identifier.

Uninstall

Deactivating the plugin stops the splash immediately and changes nothing else.

Deleting the plugin keeps your data by default, so that reinstalling restores your splashes and settings exactly as they were.

If you would rather remove everything, tick Settings → Maintenance → “Delete all data on uninstall” before you delete the plugin. With that enabled, deleting Pliitz removes:

• all splash screens and their settings;
• the plugin’s options (settings, licence record, install date, review-prompt state, database version);
• the activation-log database table;
• the cached tier record.

Logos and images chosen from the Media Library are left alone — they belong to your Media Library, not to Pliitz. Data kept in a visitor’s own browser is not ours to delete; it expires on its own or when the visitor clears their browsing data.
