## Descripcion

Add the **[zoom]** shortcode to a page, post or custom post-type post. If the post
has a featured image it will displayed on the page, and when you move the cursor
over the image, the image will be magnified with the image viewport remains constrained
to the dimensions of the original image.

on a mobile/touch device the image will also be zoomable, but as there is no hover
state this is achieved by means of a pinch & zoom action.

On my site you can see a [demo](https://cubecolour.co.uk/featured-image-zoom/) of
the plugin.

#### Usage:

Ensure that your post/page has a featured image defined.

Use a **[zoom]** shortcode to your page.

Some optional shortcode parameters can also be used.

=size=
 The **large** image is used by default for the unzoomed image. Use the size
parameter to use a different defined image size.

eg ‘[zoom size=thumbnail]’

=zoomsize=
 The **full** image is used for the zoomed overlay. This can be changed
using the **zoomsize** shortcode parameter.

eg ‘[zoom zoomsize=large]’

The image size definitions used for the the unzoomed and zoomed images should have
the same aspect ratio and cropping.

=zoomin=
 This can be used to tweak the level of zoom. The value must be a positive
integer. The default is 6 so if the zoom level results in too much magnification
on hover, try a lower value.

eg ‘[zoom zoomin=2]’

## Installacion

 1. Upload the plugin folder to your ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
 2. Activatz-la via lo menú Extensions dins l’admin WordPress

## FAQ

### Where is the plugin’s admin page?

There isn’t one. This is a lightweight plugin with no options apart from the shortcode
parameters so there is no need for an admin page.

### How can I use this in a theme template

You can call the shortcode within the template:

    ```
    echo do_shortcode( '[zoom]' );
    ```

Or you can directly use the shortcode’s function, passing an empty value for the
parameter values to use the defaults. You can confirm that the plugin is active 
by first checking that the function exists:

    ```
        if ( function_exists('cc_zoom_featured_image') ) {
            echo cc_zoom_featured_image('');
        }
    ```

To use this with different values for any of the parameters, the parameter/value
can be included in an array:

    ```
        echo cc_zoom_featured_image( array( 'zoomin' => '2') );
    ```

### I am using the plugin on my site and I love it, how can I show my appreciation?

You can make a donation via [my donation page](https://cubecolour.co.uk/wp/)

I would also appreciate a review on the [plugin review page](https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/featured-image-zoom/)
if you enjoy the plugin.

If it isn’t working for you, please refer to the documentation and existing posts
on the plugin’s forum. If the existing answers do not address your issue, please
post a question on the [plugin support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/featured-image-zoom).
If you have problems and leave a negative review before asking for support, that
is very unhelpful and actually tells people more about you than about the plugin.
Please don’t be **that guy**.

Hi Michael, I have just singed in to WordPress.org to say what a great plugin you
have designed. We have a detailed Burial map and your plugin has made it very easy
to read. We were using a pluging called image magnifier but this is now sadly 5 
years out of date. Your plugin worked just great, very simple to set up and I will
be downloading it again for other maps and drawings, we need to let people see the
detail of.. All the very best for now. Cheers John

You have to exclude images in Jetpack to work properly

This is a great plugin to zoom into a featured image such as a map. Zoom in too 
much ie 6 and the image becomes too blurred so 2 is all I need and it does the job
perfectly.

Thanks for the plugin and the great support, i was looking for a plugin to magnify
my featured images when hover, only on post pages to show in detail the PC repairs
my client does. This light plugin made it! Exactly what i wanted
