The plugin gives any image on your page the ability to be magnified when the mouse rolls over it. The square effect uses a “magnifying glass” that appears over the image lets the user zoom in to show close-up detail of the image.

- Easy – Just upload and activate the plugin.
- Customize – The default zoom level (ie: 2x) and The default size of the “magnifier” (ie: 75×75) can be changed.
- When the user scrolls the mouse wheel while over the image, the zoom level decreases or increases based on the scroll direction. The range of zoom can be changed (ie: 1x to 10x).
Demo
Please hover this image and try to scoll up or down.

Question and Answer

- How to change the default zoom level?
In your wordpress admin page > Settings > Image Zoomer, fill the form “Zoomer default power” with an integer greater or equal to 1. - How to change the size of the “magnifier”?
In your wordpress admin page > Settings > Image Zoomer, fill the form “Zoomer dimensions” with an integer, the default is 75 means 75×75. - I want only certain images can be enlarged while others don’t, how?
The default settings is your image will be zoomer all, but if you only want some of your image can be zoomer you can do it.
First go to image zoomer settings panel “Settings > Image Zoomer”, check with “no” in Option “Zoom all image”. Then open a post that have image you want to zoom.
In HTML editor find an image you want to zoome, than add “dwzoom” (without the quotes) to the class of image.

Hey there,
What a great plugin – I love it! I was wondering if there was a way to use the zoom on top of images displayed with Shadowbox or a lightbox type javascript rather than just images within the post?
Cheers,
