Altonet Animated BG

Altonet Animated BG adds beautiful, fluid animated backgrounds to your WordPress site without touching a single line of code.

Pick an effect, tweak every parameter in a live preview, and publish. The result works with any theme and adapts to your site’s design.

Why ABG?

• Live preview — every change is visible instantly while you tune it. No save-and-refresh loop.
• Deeply customizable — every effect exposes its own parameters (colors, speeds, sizes, interactions…). Defaults that look good out of the box, headroom for those who want to go further.
• Global or scoped — apply the animation to the whole page, or target a specific section with a CSS selector (.hero, #cta, etc.). Optional parallax in scoped mode.
• Works with any theme — the background sits behind your content, the plugin reads your theme’s existing background color so transparent effects blend in naturally.
• No code needed — everything is configured from a single admin page under Appearance → Animated BG.
• Lightweight and respectful — auto-disables on low-end devices and on mobile (configurable), pauses when the page is hidden, scales gracefully.

Included effects

• Advanced Neural Network — interactive particle network reacting to mouse hover and clicks. Every parameter is fully adjustable.
• Falling Shapes — geometric shapes (circle, triangle, quadrilateral, polygon, star…) or your own images, drifting in any direction across two independent layers. Perfect for snow, rain, bubbles, falling leaves or confetti.

Both effects are completely free and fully configurable — no locked settings.

Made for real sites

• Compatible with page builders (Elementor, Kadence, Beaver Builder, Bricks…).
• Multisite-aware, clean uninstall.
• No external HTTP calls, no tracking, no cookies.
• Translation-ready (text domain altonet-animated-bg).

Pro version

Altonet Animated BG Pro is a separate plugin (available at altonet.fr/animated-bg) that adds a larger library of effects — Lava Lamp, Drifting Sprite, Topographic Contours, Liquid Distortion and Hyperspace — plus harmonized background + animation presets, with more effects added over time. And most importantly, in the pro version, you can create as many animated background configurations as needed. Reuse them throughout your site or assign a different one to each section using CSS selectors or custom CSS classes.

The free plugin described here is fully functional. Pro is simply a separate product with more effects.
