Which details can you tune in Pro?
Adjust colors, overlays, borders, shadows, and timing for each style. Color pickers cover text, backgrounds, overlays, borders, buttons, and hover states. Choose separate typography for headings, descriptions, and buttons, then set font sizes for individual text elements.
- Select from more than 650 Google Fonts.
- Set border width, radius, and box shadows for individual elements.
- Add unlimited hover entries to a shortcode and set links to open in a new tab per item.
- Generate custom CSS to override styles for an individual effect.
A live preview shows changes as you work, and cloning lets you copy a style before customizing it. The add-on also includes a custom CSS editor, a built-in cache system, responsive controls for desktop, tablet, and mobile, and touch support for iOS and Android.
How does it fit your WordPress editor?
Insert effects with shortcodes in posts, pages, and widgets, or use the native Elementor widget and Gutenberg block to select and preview a style in those editors. WPBakery, Divi, Beaver Builder, and SiteOrigin support shortcodes. Per-item links, image alignment, padding, and margins help fit effects into a layout. The plugin produces SEO-friendly HTML output with alt tag support.
How do you create and place an effect?
- Open Image Hover in the WordPress admin, select an effect module, and select a layout from the template library. Name the style and save it.
- Add an item with an image, title, description, link, or button text.
- Adjust the Pro styling controls and review the result in the live preview.
- Place the style with the Elementor widget, Gutenberg block, or shortcode.
