Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Featured Image Zoom

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.

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') );

You can make a donation via my donation page I would also appreciate a review on the plugin review page 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. 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.
