Hello. I currently have the DEBUT theme on my shop and noticed that when you click on photos you cannot see them up close very well. Other websites I have used and shopped on have a MAGNIFYING GLASS FEATURE, which you to ZOOM IN ON PHOTO or AREAS OF PHOTO. Is this something only offered in CERTAIN THEME SET UPS? OR CAN IT BE ADDED TO DEBUT by turning on a certain setting. Thank you to anyone who can offer help.
Welcome to Shopify Community. My name is Olivia and I work here.
I have good news for you - Debut does have a built-in product image zoom feature. You can find it and enable it by heading to Admin > Online Store > Themes > Debut > Customize Theme > Product Pages > Enable Image Zoom as such:
Furthermore, there are 55 other themes on our Theme Store that include this feature. In case you are looking for other options, here are some of my personal favourites:
Thank you this worked. So the largest I can select the photo for this feature is MEDIUM correct? I had it on Large or max and it wasn’t available. I also saw some people have posted about Debut photos being fuzzy and to enter a code to fix this, can you help with that? My photos are super clear on phone but when I post on my page tend to be a bit fuzzier. Please advise if you have any suggestions on this. Thank you for your help I greatly appreciate it! Holly
Actually, you can choose any media size for the zoom, including large. Try to make your changes from a different browser or network connection to rule out any local errors you might have experienced last time you tried.
Secondly, the image quality issue you are experiencing likely has to do with the quality of the original image. We recommend product image sizes of 2048px by 2048px for optimal resolution without sacrificing website speed or load times. This will prevent your images from appearing pixelated (or fuzzy) on larger screens. Make sure to check out the image best practices doc I linked in my last reply for other tips.
It doesn’t look like this is a default option available in the Sense theme, however, there are a variety of image zoom apps you can look through to see if one of them meets your needs.
I’ve linked all the available options for you above, though I do recommend reviewing customer testimonials and testing a couple before committing to one. If you have further questions about any of the apps, then you can also connect with the App Developers directly for personalized assistance.
