How to turn off the page transition for one page or folder
In TeleportHQ, your page transition plays on every page of your site, but you can make one page, or every page in a folder, appear instantly instead. Right-click the page in the Pages list and switch on Skip page transition. Use it for pages that should feel immediate, such as a checkout or an account screen. Leaving that page still plays the transition.
Before you start
- Your site needs a page transition. The Skip page transition switch only shows in the menu when one is chosen. See How to add page transitions to your site.
Skip the transition for one page
- In the left sidebar, click the layers icon (tooltip Pages, Components & Tree View).
- In the Pages list, right-click the page, for example Terms & Conditions. You can also click the three dots at the end of its row.
- Near the bottom of the menu, click Skip page transition to switch it on. The menu stays open, so you can see the switch turn on.
- Click an empty grey area of the canvas to close the menu.
To play the transition on that page again, open the same menu and switch Skip page transition off.
Skip the transition for a whole folder
- In the Pages list, right-click a folder you made, for example account.
- Click Skip page transitions to switch it on.
Every page inside the folder, now and later, appears instantly. Each of those pages shows Skipped by folder account in its menu, with the switch on and greyed out. To let one of them play the transition again, move it out of the folder or switch the folder off. See How to organize pages and components in folders.
The top Pages folder has no switch. To turn the transition off on every page, choose None in Page transitions instead.
What visitors see
When a TeleportHQ page skips the page transition:
- Opening it from another page of your site changes the page instantly, with no transition.
- Leaving it for another page plays your site's transition as usual, because that other page doesn't skip it.
- No picture flies into it. See How to make a picture fly to the next page.
This works the same in Preview and on your published site. The editor's canvas never plays page transitions, so nothing changes there.
Check that it worked
Open the page's menu again: Skip page transition is on. Then click Preview in the bottom toolbar and click a link to that page: it appears at once. Your live site follows the next time you publish.
Good to know
- Admin screens skip by default. In a web app, the pages in the admin-panel folder appear instantly unless you switch that folder's Skip page transitions off.
- Reduced motion: visitors who turned on "reduce motion" on their device get every page instantly, skipped or not. See What do visitors who turn on reduced motion see?
- The AI Assistant can do it for pages. Ask, for example, "No page transition on the Checkout page."
