Updated: Sep 14, 2020


Tutorial Video

Learn how to auto load content on scroll to create a lazy loading effect on your Wix website using Corvid. Our example uses Wix Stores app to give our products index section a unique loading style that is very popular on websites such as AliExpress. This method allows the to page to progressively load content on page scroll instead of clicking a load more button or pagination element. This is a great method to create an infinite scroll effect if you have many items on a database so that you can save on load time but limiting the initial number of items to display and slowly load a little more at a time as the person scrolls down the page.
