Diana Burduja on "[Plugin: WP Image Zoom] Mega Menu drop down menu fails with WP image zoom"

First of all I really like WP image zoom as it’s a simple, elegant all I need solution. However I have an issue on the storefront woocommerce product pages of my shop. When clicking on the "mega menu" a sub menu drops down over the product image. When I hoover my mouse over this menu the product image zoom function takes over and the menu disappears.
I tried changing the z-index of the Mega Menu however the WP image zoom overrules this and thus the dropdown menu cannot be used.

I have wordpress 4.5 with Storefront
Max mega menu 2.1.5
WP image zoom 1.2.8

Any thoughts on how to set priority so that the dropdown menu stays on top of the image while using WP image zoom?

Many thanks!

Hello Mark,

yes, changing the z-index won't help because there is still an 'onhover' action in jQuery that enables the zoom window. Unfortunately I cannot do anything about it.

If it helps, you might consider the WP Image Zoom PRO, as there I changed entirely the way the zoom window is constructed and it behaves differenly. You can check out this small video to see the difference. The zoom window won't show up when you are on the menu, but once you hover over the image the zoom window will show up.

I guess I will simply leave this incompatibility with the Max Mega Menu open for the free version of the plugin.
