SBI

The bugs don’t appear on my site

Make sure the plugin is enabled from the Settings > Bug Animation page. Also check the Display Conditions and Scheduling settings to ensure the current page and time qualify.

Can I disable the animation for users who prefer reduced motion?

Yes. The plugin automatically respects the operating system / browser prefers-reduced-motion setting. Users who have enabled this accessibility preference will not see any bugs.

Is the plugin compatible with page builders?

Yes. The plugin injects bugs directly into document.body and should work with any theme or page builder.
