It’s for anyone who wants to give visitors immediate visual feedback while pages load, especially on heavier or image-rich sites, cutting down the feeling of waiting without touching actual server performance.

How to Download The Loading Bar
The Loading Bar is available for download here on Ultrapack. Installation follows the standard plugin path: Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file and click activate. The color, thickness, and speed options show up in the dashboard right after activation.
