Overview

A small views plugin which allows site administrators to add loading overlays to their views. By default ajax-enabled views use the default Drupal throbber which is only visible next to the element that triggers the AJAX callback. This module tries to improve that behavior by adding an overlay to the content that is being updated.

Requirements / Dependencies

  1. Variable
  2. Views

Installation

  • Download the latest version of the module.
  • Drop the entire views_ajax_overlay module directory into your 'sites/all/modules' folder
  • Enable the module from 'admin/build/modules'

Configuration

The loading overlay can be enabled on a site-level (all ajax-enabled views) or on a more granular (per view) level.

Per view: When ajax is enabled on a view, a new options will appear underneath to enable/disable the loading overlay.

Globally: Enable the loading overlay on all ajax-enabled views by default! No need to alter every single view.
