I have articles of Gallery Content Type.

I would like to zoom images with this extension:

But obviously this require to modify the code that does the rendering of the article.

Can someone put me in the right road?

Hi there,

Did you play with the “Magic Zoom” per its developer instructions?

———————–
To zoom an image, put a small image into your content (either by using TinyMCE image wizard or using mos_image extension).

Then link it to your large image with a class of MagicZoom e.g.
<a href=”large.jpg” class=”MagicZoom”><img src=”small.jpg”></a>

That’s all!

It seems all you need to do is to install the component, insert a small copy of your image into your Joomla content and then link this thumbnail to the full size image, applying MagicZoom class.

Regards,

Alex

Sure. And I like its simplicity.
But it doesn’t work. And if I click the small image I load the big image.

In the code I can read:

<p><a class=”MagicZoom” href=”…”></a></p>

that it is not correct.

I tried also with a simple article (in place of a Gallery Content Type article).
And I put this before the </head> tag (as I see in MagicZoom site code):

<link type=”text/css” rel=”stylesheet” ref=”/mysite.com/media/mod_magiczoom/magiczoom.css”/>
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”/mysite.com/media/mod_magiczoom/magiczoom.js”></script>

In this manner I can see the script to act, but it only shows the small image to the right, it doesn’t do the zoom.

Hi there,

Did you enable the zoom mode in the component’s settings? The zoom effect seem be turned off out of the box:

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Alex

Hi there,

Please enable the “Zoom Image” effect under the “Protostat” template first and let us know once you successfully arrived there.

Regards,

Alex

The problem was the Magic Zoom module for Joomla position, that I forgot to set at footer (http://screencast.com/t/NWuKj1jIYsm) and then no code before header is needed.

Many thank to MagicZoom’s author that do it for me!
