Image Hover Effects Ultimate Pro adds styling controls to a WordPress extension for creating animated picture presentations. Choose from more than 500 CSS3 hover animations, over 1,500 ready-to-use layouts and ten effect modules. The effects use CSS3 without jQuery, and built-in styles can be configured through the visual editor without writing code.

The modules are General, Caption, Flipbox, Button, Square, Lightbox, Comparison, Magnifier, Carousel and Filter. Styles include fades, slides, flips, zooms, overlays, caption reveals and buttons. Lightbox opens an image in a popup, Comparison presents images side by side, and Magnifier zooms into image details. Carousel and Filter offer additional ways to view visual content.

The free edition includes the modules, animations and layouts. Pro adds expanded controls for customizing the effects and priority support.

Pro styling and item controls

Adjust colors, overlays, borders, shadows and timing for each style. Color pickers cover text, backgrounds, overlays, borders, buttons and hover states. Choose from more than 650 Google Fonts for headings, descriptions and buttons, then set separate font sizes for text elements. Border width, radius and box shadows can be adjusted per element.

• Add unlimited hover entries to a shortcode and set link behavior, including opening a link in a new tab for an individual item.
• Generate custom CSS to override styles for an individual effect.
• Use the live preview to review changes, or clone an existing style and customize the copy.
• Set image alignment, padding and margins, and use responsive controls for desktop, tablet and mobile.

The plugin works with touch interactions on iOS and Android. Its custom CSS editor and built-in cache system are also available for configuring and managing effects.
