This 360 degree viewer was built for Magento Commerce. It uses JavaScript to create the spin effect, using a set of photos spaced at equal degrees to create the spin effect. You can customise the speed, borders, effects, blurring, autostart and other options. The Magento extension makes it easy to install and customize and if you need help, contact us.

Magic 360™ works on iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iTouch), most Android devices and all major browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera.

To create the 360 degree view of the product, you need a set of 18 or 36 photographs. The photos should be shot on a turntable, with bright lighting against a white background. If you don't have photos, tell us what your products are and we can get quotations for professional 360 product photography for you. Each set of photos typically costs between £30 and £90.

  1. Find the locale folder for the language you wish to change e.g. /app/locale/en_US.
  2. Open the file Mage_Api.csv into the editor and insert these lines at the and of the file:

    "Magic360_Message","Write your message here"

    "Magic360_LoadingText","Write your message here"

  3. Continue these steps for each locale you wish to change.
