SVG AutoMotion

설명

SVG AutoMotion makes it effortless to apply clean, performant animations to SVG graphics as they scroll into view — perfect for adding motion to brand logos, icons, and illustrations.

See examples at viking.infy.uk/svg-automotion

Key features:
– Gutenberg block and shortcode support
– Fade, rotate, scale, and slide effects
– Adjustable animation duration
– Lightweight, pure JavaScript (no dependencies)
– Works with any SVG in your media library
– Add a link to the image if needed

Usage

Using the Gutenberg Block

  1. Add a new block and search for SVG AutoMotion.
  2. Select your SVG image from the Media Library.
  3. Choose which animations to apply and set the animation duration.
  4. Add a link to the image if needed under link settings
  5. Save or preview your post to see the animation in action.

See Screenshot 1 and Screenshot 2.

Using the Shortcode

You can also insert animations anywhere using the [svg_automotion] shortcode.

Basic example:

[svg_automotion src=”2025/10/automotionlogo.svg”]

You can combine multiple effects:

[svg_automotion src=”2025/10/automotionlogo.svg” fade=”true” slide=”true” rotate=”false” scale=”true” duration=”4000″]

You can also add a link to the shortcode
[svg_automotion src=”2025/10/automotionlogo.svg” fade=”true” slide=”true” rotate=”false” scale=”true” duration=”4000″ link_url=”https://wordpress.org” link_newtab=”true” ]

Parameters:
src — relative or full URL path to your SVG file
fade, rotate, scale, slide — enable/disable each effect
duration — total animation time in milliseconds
link_url — url to link to (optional)
link_newtab — set to true if you wish the link to open in a new tab

FAQ

How do I upload SVG files into my media library?

If you haven’t yet, install a plugin that allows SVG uploads such as “SVG Support”.

Does it work with any SVG file?

Yes, as long as the SVG structure is valid.

Can I control which animations run?

Yes. You can toggle fade, rotate, scale, and slide animations from the block settings.

Will it slow down my site?

No. The script is tiny, loads only when needed, and animations trigger only when visible.

What sets the order of the animation?

The animation applies to image elements in the order they appear in the SVG layers.

This plugin does what it does, but it does more than should 😁, any svg affected by this plugin and doesn’t show correctly. Any advice? Thanks 🙏

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for; a simple, light-weight, easy-to-use plugin to animate my SVG files. It works well, and I also appreciate the website with the samples and the documentation. Thank you, and keep up the good work!
