Awesome image zoom for images in posts/pages and for WooCommerce or SureCart products
WP Image Zoom is a robust, modern and very configurable image zoom plugin. It allows you to easily create a magnifying glass on your images, all from a very intuitive WP admin interface.
Your visitors will be able to see the beautiful details of your images. This will improve your users’ experience and hopefully also your revenue.
Features
- 4 Zooming Types – Inner zoom, Round lens, Square lens and outer zoom (with Zoom Window).
- Animation Easing Effect – the zooming lense will follow the mouse over the image with a sleak delay. This will add a touch of elegance to the zooming experience.
- Fade Effect – the zoomed part will gracefully fade in or fade out.
- Extremely configurable – control zooming lens size, border color, border size, shadow, rounded corner, and others …
- Works with WooCommerce – easily enable the zoom on all your products’ images. Only a checkbox away.
- Works in Pages and Posts – within the post’s/page’s editor you’ll find a button for applying the zooming effect on any image.
Using the plugin with a page bulider
For applying the zoom on an image on a page/post from within a page builder, you need to add the “zoooom” CSS class to the image. Here are screenshots on how to do this with the most popular page builders:
* Gutenberg – screenshot
* WPBakery – depending on the page builder’s version: 1) screenshot with the “large” or “full” for the Image Size setting. Or 2) screenshot.
* Page Builder by SiteOrigin – screenshot
* Elementor Page Builder – screenshot. It works with all the Image Size options, except Custom.
* Beaver Builder – screenshot
* Divi Builder – screenshot (used by the Divi theme)
* Avia Layout Builder – screenshot (used by the Enfold theme)
* Fusion Page Builder – screenshot
* Brizy Page Builder – screenshot
* Tatsu Page Builder – screencast
The zoom works alright only with Image elements. Unfortunately, trying to apply the zoom on an image gallery will make the zoom work only on the first image of the gallery. With the WP Image Zoom Pro the zoom can also be applied on image galleries.
