 * Hi there,
 * I would like to use a animated SVG as my logo and for a background image. Normally
   I have to paste the URL of the image to the theme options or to the the background
   settings of my pagebuilder.
 * However how can I insert an animated SVG there?
 * Thanks in advance! 🙂

 * Hi,
 * I am afraid it is not that simple.
    Most themes expect an image for the logo.
   Even if you install a plugin that adds SVG Support, Lottie/Bodymovin doesn’t 
   export simple animated SVG’s.
 * In short, it’s is not possible unless you have someone custom code it, or find
   a theme that was coded to support animated logos using Lottie animations.
 * Cheers
