It seems that all animation on the site is achieved through CSS alone, without any use of JavaScript.
The theme relies heavily on the styles from animate.css to bring these animations to life.
There are multiple approaches you can take to replicate this effect.
Prior to making any changes, make sure to create a backup of your website and work within a child theme for safety measures. These guides will explain the importance of using a child theme and how to set one up properly.
While it may seem overwhelming at first, taking the time to understand these steps is crucial. Don't worry, you'll get through it!
Backing up your WordPress installation is essential as unforeseen issues could potentially harm your site. Having a backup allows for quick recovery in case of emergencies.
Additionally, learning how to utilize a child theme enables you to modify your theme without affecting the main parent theme. This ensures that updates can be made seamlessly without losing your customizations.

Now, let's explore different methods to achieve the desired outcome. The simplest option comes first.
POSSIBILITIES:
- Copy animate.css to your child theme directory. Create an empty file and save it with the same file structure leading to animate.css. Only the animate.css file is necessary for this task.
The following options involve more complexity and require understanding of PHP.
Replicate the script responsible for enqueuing and registering animate.css in your child theme while omitting those calls.
You can remove the enqueue and deregister functions for animate.css directly within your child theme's functions.php file.
