Tznius View

وەسف

Tznius View adds a small, friendly toggle to the front of your WordPress site. With one tap, a visitor can switch on a modest browsing mode that either hides every image or hides only the images you have marked as containing people. Each visitor’s choice is remembered in their own browser, so it stays in effect as they move from page to page.

It was built to help Jewish websites — and anyone who values modesty (tznius) — offer a respectful “kosher” way to browse, without changing what everyone else sees. It is a small aid toward שמירת עיניים (shemiras einayim), guarding the eyes. Nothing is sent to any outside service: all hiding happens in the visitor’s own browser, and you stay in full control of which images count.

What the administrator controls

• Language — English, Yiddish, or Hebrew. Yiddish and Hebrew display right-to-left. You can fine-tune the exact wording (handy for matching your community’s spelling).
• Position — top-left, top-right, bottom-left, or bottom-right.
• Which options the toggle offers — hide people only, hide all images only, or both.
• How hidden images appear:
  • Placeholder — keep the space and show a neutral box, or a replacement image you choose per image.
  • Remove completely — the image and its space disappear, as if it were never there.
  • Heavily blur — less strict; faint shapes may remain.
• Defaults — optionally start modest mode on for first-time visitors.
• Background images — optionally hide CSS background images (heroes, sliders) that use a marked image.

Marking images of people

There is no automatic guessing — you decide. In Media → Library, open an image and tick “Contains people,” or use the one-click button in the “People?” column of the list view. Those images are hidden whenever a visitor turns on “hide images of people.”

Replacement images

For any image, you can choose a modest replacement (ideally the same size) on its Edit Media screen. When that image would be hidden, the replacement is shown in its place instead — in any mode and with any style. This lets you swap a photo containing a person for a tasteful alternative with no people in it.

Keep your logo visible

Tick “Never hide this image” on your logo (or any image) in the Media Library and it stays visible in every mode — no code needed.
