Request: Add a simple loading screen (preloader: a temporary screen shown before the homepage loads) before entering a Shopify Dawn theme homepage. The OP asks if it’s feasible without coding and seeks a cost estimate. They shared the store URL and an image example.
Feasibility: A developer confirms it’s possible by adding custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to the theme files.
Constraints: The OP notes limited coding knowledge and likely needs to hire a developer; they specifically request pricing information.
Next steps: The developer asks for the OP’s WhatsApp number to discuss details and proceed, but provides no public estimate or technical specifics.
Outcome: No implementation plan, cost range, or code was shared. The thread remains open with pricing and scope unresolved.
Notes: The attached image is central to conveying the desired loading screen design; no discussion of potential performance, UX, or SEO implications was included.
Hi all, our store is currently using Shopify’s Dawn theme. We’d like to ask if it’s possible to create a simple loading screen before entering the Home Page (example below). If it is, does it require hiring a developer, and what’s the estimated price?

Hello @andrwmai
Yes, it’s possible to create a simple loading screen before entering your Shopify Dawn theme homepage. You can achieve this by adding custom code (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) to your theme files.
Hi @devcoders , thank you for replying. We don’t have much coding knowledge regarding this, and might have to hire a developer to make this possible. Do you happen to know the price for it?
Hi, thank you for your message. Please share your WhatsApp number so we can discuss the tasks in detail and move forward with the project.
