The Splash Screen block is a UniLink block that displays a full-screen introductory overlay when visitors first open your page, creating a powerful first impression before they see your main content.
What is the Splash Screen Block?
The Splash Screen block acts as a welcome gate for your UniLink page. It appears instantly when someone visits your link, covering the full screen with your chosen image, message, or branding before fading away to reveal the rest of your page. This is ideal for creators who want to make an immediate visual impact, announce a new product launch, or set the mood for their brand before visitors see any links or blocks below.
How to Add the Splash Screen Block
- Log in to your UniLink Dashboard
- Open your page editor
- Click Add Block (+)
- Select Splash Screen
Configuration Options
- Background Image — Upload a high-resolution photo or graphic that fills the entire splash screen area.
- Headline Text — Add a short, attention-grabbing title displayed on top of the splash background.
- Subtext — Include a brief supporting line such as a tagline, date, or brand message.
- Display Duration — Set how many seconds the splash screen stays visible before automatically dismissing.
- Skip Button — Enable a visible button so visitors can bypass the splash screen immediately if they choose.
- Animation Style — Choose how the splash screen transitions away, such as a fade-out or slide-up effect.
Best Practices
- Keep the splash screen brief — 2 to 3 seconds is enough to impress without frustrating returning visitors.
- Always enable the skip button so users on slow connections are not forced to wait.
- Use a single bold visual or message — avoid cluttering the splash screen with too much text or too many elements.
- Pair your splash screen with a seasonal promotion or product launch for maximum relevance and impact.
