Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about SoftIcon Flipbook – PDF Flipbook & Magazine Viewer
Edit a page, open the block inserter, search for Flipbook and add the block. Pick a PDF from your Media Library or upload one, and the live book appears right away. Watch the 36-second tutorial.
Select the flipbook, open the Style tab and choose Hardcover book under Design. The pages get a cover, page edges and a shadow at the spine, with large arrows beside the book; you can pick the cover color there too. See it in the Hardcover video.
Yes. Select the flipbook, open the Style tab and turn on Open in a lightbox under Display. Choose what shows on the page – the book's cover, a button or a text link – and a click opens the book in a popup over the page. The cover is the PDF's first page, or any image you choose. The book loads only when it is opened, so a page can list many books and stay fast. Watch the lightbox video.
Only if that website allows it (CORS). Browsers block reading PDFs from other sites otherwise. Upload the PDF to your Media Library and it always works.
The plugin adds no limit of its own; your site's upload limit still applies. Pages are drawn as the reader gets near them, and on servers that support range requests (most do) large PDFs are fetched in parts instead of all at once.
The front end loads a 35 KB script (12 KB compressed). The PDF engine is loaded only when a flipbook comes near the screen, or for a lightbox only when it is opened.
Yes. The block tells its script where the plugin's files are, so combining or moving scripts does not break the flipbook.
The flipbook is a block, so you add it in the block editor (Gutenberg). It works with any theme, including classic themes, on the pages and posts you build with blocks.
Add #page= and the page number to the address of the page with the flipbook, for example https://example.com/catalog/#page=12. The first flipbook on the page opens at that page; if it is a lightbox, the popup opens there. Links like <a href="#page=8"> on the same page turn the book to that page, so you can write your own table of contents. The reading features video shows it.
Yes. Web and email links in the PDF can be clicked, web links open in a new tab, and links to another page (like a contents page) turn the book to that page. If the PDF has bookmarks, a Table of contents button in the toolbar lists them. You can turn off either one in the block settings.
