How can I disable the flip and only view one Page per flip? Instead of double – that would allow a better zoomed view

Hi,

No, unfortunately it is not possible to disable the flip. If it were possible, what do you think would be a good transition to show another page, would a simple slide effect be good enough?

About the one page per flip: I’m sorry, but i did not understand how one page per flip would allow a better zoomed view. Can you give some example where this is implemented how want it?

One more thing: please answer this message by sending me a message using the support tab. Email is the best way to respond to support requests, and we avoid polluting the comments section. Thanks for understanding.

Hi,I bought a license but I can’t find How to change the url of the PDF dynamically.

Hi,

Answered you email,

Best regards

Thank you for your answer, but I want to change PDF Path dynamically

$(”#book”).wowBook({ });

pdf: ""

hi, can we use it for more than one site and domain when we buy it?

Hi,

Probably not.

Envato’s Regular License states that you must use the plugin in a single end product, which probably means one site/domain . You can get more information about it at https://themeforest.net/licenses/terms/regular

Hope this helps

Hello, this plugin works nice, but would it possible to get a full made example where single page mode is integrated for a mobile phone? I find information about it on documentation, but I can’t manage to do fully working and in all of the examples there is no single page mode added. Would be super nice to have one example with this feature too. Would be amazing if you add it as a demo.

Never mind, looks like it’s working, I just needed to load it on specific screen!

Hi,

before I buy alow me a few questions:

1. Is it possible to create a flipbook from single pages with your software?

2. Is it enough if we provide all pages as single images and Flipbook automatically makes a 2 page view?

3. Is it possible to set the size (height) to for example 300px in the view?

Thanks in advance. Peter

Hi Peter,

> 1. Is it possible to create a flipbook from single pages with your software?

Yes. Just keep in mind that this is a jQuery plugin, it is not a standalone program that will generate a website containing the flipbook for you.

> 2. Is it enough if we provide all pages as single images and Flipbook automatically makes a 2 page view?

If you want to provide one single image to be shown as a 2 page spread, then yes, it is possible.

> 3. Is it possible to set the size (height) to for example 300px in the view?

Yes. The height and width are configurable.

Hope that helps,

Best regards

Yes, Author is responsive and great. This is good assets and helped me a lot

Hi everybody, I have managed to make internal and external links by modifying the wow_book.min.js library On line 256 change c.find(“a”).attr(“target”,”_blank”) to

if( c.find(“a”).length > 0 ){ for (var _a = 0; _a < c.find(“a”).length; _a++) { if( $(c.find(‘a’)[_a]).attr(‘href’).indexOf(‘http://book/')>-1){ $(c.find(‘a’)[_a]).attr(‘href’,$(c.find(‘a’)[_a]).attr(‘href’).replace(‘http://','/#') ) $(c.find(‘a’)[_a]).attr(“target”,”_self”); }else{ $(c.find(‘a’)[_a]).attr(“target”,”_blank”); } } }

For internal linking http://book/3 it would be replace by /#book/3 If you want to make more actions, use this procedure

I hope it helps you Greetings!

hello, is there a problem with Firefox I’m using the latest version 93.0? The problem is on mouse over the page side the page will flip at the same position. I sent you an email for that including the video that will represent the error

If I remove the download button, will users still be able to download the pdf file (i.e., the pdf URL can be read from the javascript code)? or the URL of the PDF can be hidden?

Hi,

Yes, users will be able to see the URL in the source code if they know how to do it. You can try to obfuscate the url in the source, but there’s no garantee that the pdf will not be downloaded as a pdf file.

Hope this helps

Hello, we have big PDF files around 200M, example: Eample: https://ledme.cz/katalogy/Eglo-Interier-2020_21.pdf My question is how fast it will load until user can interact with it? I need to know if the plugin will be usable for our purpose (if the loading is too big, the client dont want to use it). Do you offer refund if we purchase it and its slow? Please let me know. Thank you.

Hi,

As longs as your web server has support for HTTP range requests ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Range_requests ), your users should have no problem. Wowbook will render the pdf file as soon as the first page is delivered by the server, it will not need to download the whole pdf file before start to render.

Hope this helps,

P.s. for those who are reading this, yes, Wowbook does support right to left.

Hi, i want to buy this plugin,but i want to ask something for make sure, can i use jquery v3 for this plugin? Thank you

Quick Question: Can your Flipbook (Wowbook) be run off a cd/dvd/usb for distribution? I would like to put a digital product catalog together using your flipbook that will start out as direct mail but eventually grow to online as well. I appreciate your feedback on this.

Regards, Brian

Hi Brian,

Wowbook is a javascript plugin that runs on a web browser. It is possible to put all html/css/images in a dvd and run a web browser like chrome from the dvd with specific flags that will relax the browser security and allow direct access the local files in the dvd. Although i know this is possible in theory, i never tested to be honest.

Hope this helps

Pre purchase question : Does the plugin allow me to zoom crop specific sections on pdf for smaller devices

Hi,

On mobile devices you can pinch to zoom or use the zoom in/out buttons in the toolbar. There’s no built in feature to zoom crop to a specific are of the pdf page.

Best regards

Hi, can I open a PDF on a specific page or does it only open at the beginning? That is, can I pass a parameter indicating the page number and the Plugin already opens the PDF on that page?

Grateful

Giovani

Hi Giovani,

Yes, there’s a configuration option to choose which page the plugin will show at start.

Best regards

Tries using your code and get some error showing in console:

Deprecated API usage: getDocument is called with pdfDataRangeTransport, passwordCallback or progressCallback argument pdf.combined.min.js:89 Warning: Setting up fake worker. 4pdf.combined.min.js:89 Warning: Knockout groups not supported.

Hi,

Don’t worry, these are not errors, they are warnings. They will not cause problems in your site.

But if for some reason your project with Wowbook is not working, send me a email through the support tab and i will help you to figure out the solution.

Best regards

There are 3 examples that can be used immediately, but there are examples that are different from those introduced in the demo. I would like to receive 3 example files introduced in the demo.

Hi,

I have answered your email.

Best regards

Amazing plugin!

But I noticed that when I specify a path to the pdf (for eg. ”/system/attachments/645/original/h2a_10_20_w3.pdf”) and click download, the file name gets changed to “_system_attachments_645_original_h2a_10_20_w3.pdf”

Is it possible to preserve the original filename on download?

Hi,

You can set the filename using the configuration option “downloadFilename” to the name you want.

If you need more assistance please send a message through the support tab (email is much easier to give support)

Hope this helps

Best regards

Is there any documentation available explaining how to use this?

Hi,

Yes, when you purchase a plugin license you download a zip file containing the plugin, the documentation and examples.

Best regards

I don’t understand how this product works nor what it requires in order to work. There is no documentation available BEFORE purchasing that would explain it?

Hi,

I totally understand why you want to see the documentation, but there’s no documentation online.

About the plugin: basically you include the plugin css file and javascript file into your html page, then write some html and javascript to configure the plugin. Several ready to use examples are provided.

Wowbook is a regular jQuery plugin, so if you have basic html/javascript knowledge you should have no problem in using wowbook. It’s actually simple, but if writing html code is something that you never did before(nor is trying to learn) i really don’t recommend to buy the plugin license. Probably you will be better served by a solution that provides you a graphical user interface to create the books.

Hope that helps,

Best regards
