Pixelate on hover effect for WooCommerce products
A patch of chunky pixels follows the pointer, and the rest of the photograph stays sharp. Keep it for playful shops, as it hides detail where people look.

Point at the picture. On a touch screen, press and drag.
This is a tease rather than a sales tool, because it hides what it points at. Use it on a launch page where the product is not out yet, or on a loud streetwear page where a joke helps.
What the sliders do
- Size
- How wide the patch is. If it is smaller than the product, people can still see what they are looking at around it.
- Strength
- How coarse the pixels are. In the block, more strength means fewer, larger pixels.
Where we started
The values we started this page on: Size 50, Strength 70.
Questions
Does this hide the product?
Under the pointer, yes, and that is the point of it. If you need people to inspect the product, use a lens.
Which products should avoid this?
Anything worn on the body, because a censor block has its own meaning there.
