This only working on Attachments and you must follow the setting-instruction from vossi.

If this addon is getting frequented, Im going to add the albums and CMS for this aswell, now it only works in postings and attachments.

I have seen this same effect on catalogue sites, magiczoom isnt the only contender available, although very professional other sources include:

MojoZoom
JQZoom Evolution
TJPZoom
Mootools

I think you have the best version though Vossi!

Vossi please push forward with this mod and add all the bells and whistles. I'm open to donating a decent amount if you are in deed going to get serious with it.

I got this to work only with images that were inserted only. If the images were attached by scrolling below the editor and selecting Manage Attachments, they would Not work with magic zoom.

Also after inserting a image and replying to the thread, the magic zoom function didn't appear to work until after I would refresh my browser or selecting F5.

I also tried disabling the attachment feature from below the editor but then the magic zoom would not work at all. So...the best situation here would be to get this mod to with with attachments managed from below the editor.

Btw, anyone thinking of using the trial version, it works, but it displays a message on the bottom of your image that ask you to upgrade to the full version. I would think that there are some that would not be bothered by this display.

I'm considering purchasing the Magic Zoom Plus version to see if it will work with Vossi's mod.

[1320Nation]

As a update I actually had the Magic Zoom Plus trial version loaded. However, it only seem to match the feature of the Magic Zoom trial version.

[Vossi]

I'm going to check how I can implement magic Zoom Plus for the next version.

Installed and seemingly working

4.1.10 Alpha 1

It would be really nice to add Magic Zoom Plus support.

edit: seems you replied before I did. lol Good to hear it ...err... read it.

[OldSchoolDSL]

Uninstalled

Photos would get cut off, sometimes no thumbnails, and didn't seem in as much as I'd like it to.

But I do like the concept and will follow this, so tagged.

Well I was confused and I do owe Vossi and apology...
I am so sorry...
I do like the mod and feel privledged to be able to correct this for you I am sorry about misunderstanding...
