Animate prepared SVG drawing as a mobile picture. Uses Anime.js and Vivus.js
Examples:
Add desired prepared (see example) images in wordpress standard uploads folder (on multisite uploads/sites/#/), and add shortcode to any page, specifing svg folder to use and animate:
[caldersvg svgs="wp-content/my/folder/containing/svg/files/"]
or
[caldersvg svgs="/var/www/mysite/wp-content/my/folder/containing/svg/files/"]
with all your .svg files in last folder.
The svgs parameter DOES NOT contain a URL (starting by http://), but a relative path on the server.
You can test with default demo files, included inside plugin (under calder-svg/svg/), but you have to copy them under your uploads wordpress folder before, and use something like shortcode:
[caldersvg svgs=".…| WordPress | 4.0+ requiredTested up to 4.8.28 |
