How Do I Stop Images From Zooming in Shopify?

Last updated on January 11, 2023 @ 12:44 pm

As you probably know, when you zoom in on an image, it becomes pixelated and blurry. This is because the number of pixels in the image increases, and each individual pixel becomes larger. When this happens, the image looks less sharp and less defined.

So, how do you stop images from zooming in Shopify? There are a few ways:

1. Use a Shopify Custom Theme

If you use a Shopify custom theme, you can add some code to your theme’s CSS file that will prevent images from zooming in.

Just add the following code to your CSS file:

.product-single__photo { max-width: 100%; }

.product-single__photos { max-width: 100%; }

2. Use an Image Resizer App

There are a few apps available on the Shopify App Store that will help you resize your images so that they don’t zoom in when they’re enlarged. These apps usually have a free trial period so that you can try them out before committing to a paid subscription.

PRO TIP: If you are having issues with images zooming in Shopify, there are a few things that you can try. First, try to disable any zooming features in your browser or in Shopify itself. If that doesn’t work, try clearing your cache and cookies. Finally, if all else fails, you can always contact Shopify support for help.

3. Optimize Your Images for the Web

Whenever you upload an image to your Shopify store, make sure that you optimize it for the web first. This means reducing the file size of the image so that it doesn’t take up too much space on your server and load slowly on your website. There are a few ways to do this:

– Save images in a compressed file format like JPEG or PNG.
– Use an image compression tool like TinyPNG or ImageOptim.
– Resize your images so that they’re not too large.
