Enables a [zoom] Shortcode to display a zoomable featured image.

== Description ==

Add the [zoom] shortcode to a page, post or custom post-type entry. The featured image at the 'large' size will then be displayed on the page. When you move the cursor over the image, the image zooms to show the 'full' size featured image cropped within the boundary of the image.

The Featured Image Zoom plugin uses the [elevatezoom](https://github.com/elevateweb/elevatezoom/ "elevatezoom") script. 

This plugin was built to enable specific functionality for a customer project so there are no options in the initial version. Some options may be added in later versions.

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

= Usage: =

Use a `[zoom]` shortcode to add a zoomable version of the featured image to your page.


== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin folder to your '/wp-content/plugins/' directory
1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Where is the plugin's admin page? =

There isn't one. This is a lightweight plugin with no options 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 even better, directly use the callback function after checking that the plugin is active:

`
	if (function_exists('zoom_featured_image')) {
		zoom_featured_image();
	}
`

= Why does the page reload after resizing the browser? =

This is a workaround to correct display issues that occur otherwise after reducing the browser size or changing orientation on a tablet. There is probably a better way to correct this, and if I do work out an alternative that does not require a reload, I will implement it in a later version.

= 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](http://cubecolour.co.uk/wp/ "cubecolour donation page")

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

If it isn't working for you, please refer to the documentation and existing posts on this plugin's forum. If this does not address your issue, post a question on the [plugin support forum](http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/featured-image-zoom "Featured Image Zoom forum") so we have an opportunity to try to get it working before you leave a review.
