About WPThemePrime Product Image Swap for Woo…
From the official readme · v1.2.0Description
WPThemePrime Product Image Swap for WooCommerce lets customers preview a second product image by hovering over any product card — in shop pages, categories, or home page grids.
Key Features:
- 8 Animation Types: Fade, Slide Up/Down/Left/Right, Zoom In/Out, and Instant Swap.
- Auto Gallery Fallback: No secondary image set? The plugin automatically uses the first WooCommerce gallery image. Works immediately for stores that already have gallery images — zero setup per product.
- Mobile Tap Support: On touch devices, tap once to reveal the secondary image; tap again to navigate to the product.
- Image Preloading: Secondary images are preloaded on hover-intent to prevent flash or delay.
- Live Settings Preview: See your animation in real time on the settings page — with a Play button to simulate the effect.
- Custom Speed: Set animation duration from 50ms to 5000ms using a range slider.
- Page Control: Enable or disable independently for Shop, Home, and Single product pages.
- HPOS Compatible: Fully compatible with WooCommerce High Performance Order Storage.
- Clean Uninstall: All plugin data is removed from the database when the plugin is deleted.
How to Use:
- Go to Products > Edit Product.
- Find the Secondary Product Image (Swap) box in the right sidebar.
- Click Select / Upload Image.
- Save the product.
- Configure animation and display options at WooCommerce > Image Swap.
Installation
- Upload the
product-image-swap-for-woocommercefolder to/wp-content/plugins/. - Activate through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
- Configure at WooCommerce > Image Swap.
Frequently asked questions
Does this work with all WooCommerce themes?
Yes, with most WooCommerce-compatible themes that use standard WooCommerce templates. Themes heavily overriding WooCommerce templates may need minor CSS adjustments.
Will it slow down my store?
No. All transitions are CSS-based. Secondary image IDs are cached via WordPress object cache to prevent extra database queries on pages with many products.
Does this work on mobile?
Yes. The first tap on a product image reveals the secondary image. The second tap navigates to the product page. Tapping outside any product resets all.
Does this work with WooCommerce Blocks?
This plugin supports classic WooCommerce templates (shortcodes, PHP-based themes). WooCommerce Blocks (Gutenberg/FSE product loops) are not currently supported — this is a known limitation.
What is the Auto Gallery Fallback?
When enabled, if a product has no manually assigned secondary image, the plugin uses the first image from the WooCommerce product gallery automatically. Stores with existing gallery images work with zero per-product setup.
What happens to my data when I delete the plugin?
All plugin data is removed: the settings option and all secondary image assignments are deleted from the database.
