The extension includes multiple configuration options for controlling zoom behavior, fullscreen viewing, image navigation, thumbnails, and overall gallery functionality.

• Enable Gallery: Enables or disables the custom product image gallery. When disabled, the default Magento gallery template is used.

• Enable Hover Zoom: Enables hover lens and side zoom preview on desktop devices.
• Zoom Magnification: Defines the zoom preview magnification level from 1.0 to 10.0.

• Enable Fullscreen: Opens images in fullscreen mode from the expand button or image click.
• Show Main Image Arrows: Displays previous and next navigation arrows on the main image.
• Keyboard Navigation: Allows arrow keys and Escape key navigation in fullscreen mode.
• Touch Swipe: Enables swipe gestures on touch devices to navigate gallery images.
• Show Thumbnails: Displays thumbnail previews below the main image.
• Show Fullscreen Title: Displays product or image captions in fullscreen mode.

Customers can open product images in a distraction-free fullscreen popup view for detailed product inspection and seamless navigation. Combined with keyboard controls, swipe gestures, and thumbnail previews, the fullscreen viewer creates an immersive browsing experience across desktop and mobile devices.

The extension includes advanced hover zoom functionality that allows customers to inspect textures, materials, stitching, and other fine product details with precision. A hover-based zoom lens highlights specific areas while displaying a magnified preview alongside the image.

Built using modern frontend technologies, the gallery is lightweight, fast, and optimized for Hyvä themes. The extension delivers smooth interactions and fast loading performance without relying on heavy third-party libraries.

The module supports both product images and videos, allowing merchants to create more engaging and informative product galleries.

With its clean design, enhanced interactivity, and optimized performance, the gallery helps improve customer engagement and product presentation. Better image viewing experiences can increase customer confidence and positively influence conversion rates.

This extension provides a modern alternative to Magic Zoom with improved performance, faster load times, and better compatibility with Hyvä themes.

Unlike traditional zoom solutions that depend on heavy JavaScript libraries, this extension is powered by Alpine.js, making it lightweight, fast, and future-ready for modern Magento stores.

• Alpine.js Powered: Lightweight performance without jQuery or Knockout dependencies.
• Magic Zoom Replacement: Optimized zoom experience for Hyvä themes.
• Fully Responsive: Works seamlessly across mobile, tablet, and desktop devices.
• Hybrid Media Support: Combine images and YouTube/Vimeo videos in one gallery.
• Zero Dependencies: Improves page speed and reduces Total Blocking Time.

Traditional solutions like Magic Zoom Plus were designed for older Magento themes and can be difficult to integrate with modern frontends such as Hyvä. This extension provides a native, high-performance alternative built specifically for the modern Magento ecosystem.
