Magic Zoom / Magic Thumb with Video

[lesliekirk]

Hi Leanne,

Yes, of course! Also I have been emailing Igor at [email protected]

He edited the magic-miva-imagemachine.js file to work with the Product Custom Field "magic_video" I created. I noticed that the magic-miva-imagemachine.js that is available for download didn't seem to have the code for video. Igor added it based on my custom field.

As part of the editing Igor had me add a div field with the class being the custom field. He never told me to remove so I've left it.

<!-- Magic Video test link -->
<div class="magic_video">&mvt:product:customfield_value s:customfields:magic_video;</div>

Since I can't share the javascript file on the forum, I'll have to email it to you.

Thought I'd reply and post this here for those that are still using Magic Zoom on sites... Out of the box it doesn't include alt / title / width / height attributes for images. I've modified the image machine script to include those -- feel free to PM me for an updated script. There are a couple caveats... e.g. all images should be the same aspect ratio (which is already best practice).

My biggest wishlist feature for Shadows is a better image zoom. I'd love it if they built in Photoswipe and made that the default, which is what I typically use for site builds. Photoswipe doesn't look great out of the box, but you can customize the controls and styling easily to make it look amazing & match whatever site you're building.

Follow up on my earlier post. I've had to contact magictoolbox.com support once again. The video feature didn't work. The first reply I got from their support was "...displaying videos is not part of standard Magic Zoom Plus script". I was told to use the custom version they had previously created for me. I did send them a screenshot of the default Magic Zoom Plus page on their website. I think I'll take a peek at what Ryan has shared. If you need the custom script let me know, I can pass it along.
