Cursor Trail

Description

Simple little plugin that adds a trailing cursor effect to your mouse pointer. Add a fun touch to your site or just during festive seasons!

With this plugin, you can choose:

  • The trailing image to show which follows your cursor (default is a mouse arrow).
  • Adjust the fade speed of the trail and the rate of display.
  • Choose when to start/stop showing the mouse trail (such as only during a holiday season).

If you have any issues or suggestions, please visit our support forums.

If you find this plugin useful and would like to say thanks, please leave us a 5 star review!
In the plugin folder, there’s a valentines icon too, change pointer.png in the cursor image option to valentines.png and then feel the love!

I changed the trial image to some words relevant to my site and now it transformed the whole user experience! Very awsome plugin. You should also allow for the cursor itself to be changed please Marcus. Thanks so much for this plugin!
