Hi. I have successfully downloaded the .zip file, but I am encountering an error that prevents me from extracting it. Could you please look into this and resolve the issue? Thank you for your assistance
Hi Alberto, What issue do you have? Extracting should be possible without any problems.
I am encountering an issue while trying to unzip the file. I get Error 79: Inappropriate file type or format. When I try using an online unzipper, I receive the following error: ‘Corrupted zip: compression \x09\x00 unknown’.
Hi Alberto, We don’t use any special compression and you seem to be the only user who experiences this kind of problem. Please try to use a different unzip tool on your system and re-download the Magalone file again (maybe it wasn’t downloaded correctly).
Best regards
well…
after using Mac unzipper I tried different online unzipper (last one is www.ilovezip.com)
this is the answer
Error reading codecanyon-REihbYrS-magalone-flipbook.zip: Corrupted zip : compression \x09\x00 unknown (inner file : example/documents/doc1/upload.php)
Send me your email which allows zip file attachments. I’ll then send you a newly zipped archive.
Or try https://apps.apple.com/de/app/the-unarchiver/id425424353?mt=12 That one works for me.
Thank you. Everything seems to be running smoothly with the program you recommended. Thanks again
Hello,
We are planning to purchase your FlipBook product (CodeCanyon item) for a specialized project, and we have a few critical questions regarding compatibility and licensing before proceeding with the purchase:
1. Licensing and App Usage (Most Critical)
Our intended use is within a hybrid mobile application (WebView / Cordova / Capacitor). All source files (HTML, JS, CSS) and PDF files are loaded locally from the app’s Assets folder, rather than a public domain.
A. Local Licensing: Can the product be licensed for use inside an app that loads files locally?
B. Activation Domain: Since the files are loaded via a local address (e.g., file:///, http://localhost:XXXX, or an internal virtual address), which URL should we enter in the license activation form? Is a publicly accessible domain required?
C. Offline Support: Does the library function completely without displaying error messages or restrictions when the application is disconnected from the internet (Offline)?
2. RTL and Layout Support
Our content is in Hebrew and requires Right-to-Left (RTL) flipping.
A. Flipping Direction: Does the product fully support the RTL direction, including page arrangement (cover on the right) and flipping direction (right-to-left)?
B. Single Page Mobile View: Is there an option to automatically set a Single Page View when the user is viewing the book on a mobile phone screen?
3. PDF and Dynamic Content
A. PDF Source: Does the product allow reading PDF files that are stored locally (in the Assets folder), or does it strictly require the PDF to be at a full network address (URL)?
B. Two Separate Pages Layout: We want to display two different files side-by-side: one PDF on the right side (text) and a second PDF on the left side (image/annotation). Does the product support loading two separate PDF sources into a single flipbook, where the right and left pages are sourced from different PDF files?
C. HTML Overlays: If we cannot load two PDF files, is there support for embedding rich HTML content (like images, video, or extra text) over a single PDF page, and how do we ensure these overlays align correctly in RTL mode?
Thank you very much for your assistance. A positive confirmation on the licensing and RTL points will allow us to proceed with the purchase immediately
Hi, I have a support request unanswered for 5 months. here in this very forum
I just purchased the plugin, and I am trying to install it to my WordPress, and it is showing the error no file found. Please help me with this.
Hi,
We used to use the old WordPress plugin. It worked well on mobile, the full screen button was available: https://born.hu/clients/ECTA/bulletin-june-2024-2/
but with the newly purchased version, the same embed code and the full screen button is hidden on a mobile screen: https://brandworkroom.com/ECTA/bulletin-march-2025/
What changes? What should be different?
Thanks
Hi, can we get an answer please?
H bocimayeri,
Apologies – I completely overlooked your message earlier.
You’re right, the fullscreen button used to be available on mobile devices (like in the June 2024 bulletin). However, in the newer version, we had to make some changes specifically due to issues with mobile Safari compatibility. Unfortunately, this meant removing the fullscreen functionality on mobile devices.
It was a difficult decision and one we made with a heavy heart, but it was necessary to ensure a more stable and consistent experience across all devices.
Thanks for your understanding, and please let us know if you have any further questions or feedback.
Best regards

Hello,
I have to distribute study material in pen drive with each student @ school. Videos, Images are stored in pen drive within a folder. Can i use your tool “Magalone Flipbook” to make pdf flipbooks and distribute them on pen drive.
Main queries are as follows: While making a flipbook can i import and embed Videos files stored on pen drive to the presentation.
Can we distribute these final flipbooks stored in Pen drive. We don’t want to use internet.
Kindly Confirm.
Hello , i want to purchase this solution but , i want to know how to upload the PDF files , could you provide a DEMO or a PIC , thank you
Hi youtrom,
Thank you for your interest in buying the asset. Flipbook generation is pretty easy and straightforward. You just need to copy your PDF Document into the /magalone_folder/documents/doc1/ folder and rename it full.pdf.

Hi, we bought this thinking it was the wordpress plugin. Is there a wordpress plugin that is maintained? The one we had seems to be dead.
Hi bocimayer, Unfortunately there’s no WP version of Magalone available. Only the standalone one.

How can I avoid needing upload.php even when the file is not called full.pdf?
example : /assets/images/parutions/2024/10/05/QR_15970_20241005-677fb332dd04b.pdf
You need the upload.php, which is handling the upload (as it’s name says) the upload of your pdf file. You can rename your pdf to full.pdf. That’s the easiest way.
I preferred to buy another solution …

I hope this message finds you well. I recently purchased your plugin, Magalone Flipbook, from CodeCanyon. However, I’m encountering some difficulties while trying to integrate and run it within my Laravel project.
Specifically, it’s stuck on the loading page. Despite following the installation instructions meticulously, the plugin doesn’t seem to function properly within the Laravel environment.
Could you please assist me in resolving this issue? Any guidance, updates, or patches that could help make the plugin compatible with Laravel would be greatly appreciated.
I want a flipbook to start from any middle page except 1st page. Is there any code restriction that flipbook will always start from 1st page.
i want to start flipbook to start whenever i left book using javascirpt
is there any configuration available for start read book from 5th page
My Friend (962IT) bought it with no luck to implement it for apache server with my sql. We go through the documents you provided. The issue is we have many files inside data-path, our data path is: data-path=”../Administration/<?php echo $File_Path; ?>” where the file_path is the field name iside mysql table.
The pathe is correct when run the report (..ead2.php?File_Path=Newspapers_Files/W15-9-23.pdf) but it give error: No upload.php file found or incorrect file.
In the browser developer give the following error: 404 not found cover small and upload.php.
I tried to fixed data-path to call from fixed folder, it run and load the 1st file and keep reading the same file for other pdf files.
Thank you
Hi Meme777,
Thank you for reaching out with your concern. To resolve the issue you’re encountering, please ensure the following:
- The data-path should point to a specific folder rather than dynamically referencing files.
- Ensure that the folder referenced in the data-path has the necessary write permissions. This is essential because the system needs to write processed files to this folder.
By making these adjustments, the system should be able to properly access and write the necessary files.
Let us know if you need any further assistance.
Best regards
The Magalone Team
Thank you, i like your tools, but am facing many challenges.
I add a fixed data-path, but:
1. I have more than 100 files inside the same data-path folder and increased on daily basis , When I open the needed file (example file 1.pdf), it’s open successfully, when i open the 2.pdf file, it’ open the first one again and so on for the rest of the files, it back again to the 1.pdf file
I think your tools is for only one file generator, and i have to manually add the 2nd file inside the same data-path and clean the previous one, it’ not dynamics for newspaper web site where we have a new issue every day.
Best Regards
Hello meme777,
Thank you for your feedback and for detailing the challenges you’re facing with our tool.
You’re correct in your understanding. Magalone is designed to support only one PDF file per folder. If you wish to display multiple documents, it would require each file to be placed in its own separate subfolder. For instance, structure it as: issues/issue_1/1.pdf, issues/issue_2/2.pdf, and so forth.
We understand that this may not be the most dynamic solution for a newspaper website, especially when dealing with a new issue daily. If you find that Magalone isn’t meeting your needs based on its current capabilities, we truly apologize for the inconvenience. If you’d like to proceed with a refund, we’d be happy to facilitate that for you.
Your satisfaction is our priority. Thank you for giving our tool a try, and we’re here to assist you further.
Best Regards,
The Magalone Team
Thank you for your clarification. I like your tools, I will use it for my own personal use. Hope next version will cover theses challenges.
Good Luck
One last thing, if i wrote a script to generate a separate folder for each file like your suggestd structure, do i need to keep manually the upload.php in each folder?
Another issue – beside typo3 (i now implemented it via raw html page, not in Typo3):
You can see the page here: http://alpen.auto-bebion.de/documents/index.htmlThe source is: id=”reader-container” data-path=”doc8/” data‑page‑mode=”single” data‑show‑thumbnails=”true”
So there should be thumbnails and only single page mode – but it is not.
Can you have a look at this please? I need to get your script working.
Thank you
Hi graffito,
We’ve checked your page and it seems that your code is malformed (bad encoding?):
.... div id=”reader-container” data-path=”doc8/” data‑page‑mode=”single” data‑show‑thumbnails=”true”.....
Best regards
The Magalone Team
Ooooh, thank you very much, Totally have overseen that one.. in my editor it looks right.
Corrected it – now it is working – thx! BR Andreas
Hey graffito,
Good to hear that it works now
. Would be great if you can give us a positive rating.

Hello, there is no simple.html file among the files I downloaded, and when I change the pdf file, the images come first, after a certain time, the pdf comes. Please help 
Hi caglayesiltepe,
The simple.html file is just part of our demo – not the package itself. But everything seems to be ok. Magalone always loads the image first and when the PDF is ready updates the view with the (sharper) PDF. Sometimes that process takes longer, depending on the size and complexity of the PDF.
Best regards
The Magalone Team
hello i just want to open pdf how can i do it please tell me 
Hi caglyesiltepe,
Please take a look on the documentation in the package. There it’s explained on how to get startet. If you get any errors, take a look on the support tab here at Envato. There we cover the most questions.

Hello, I looked at the files, of course, but nowhere does it say how to open a pdf directly, and a data.json request is sent from the maglone.min.js file and the number of pages comes up as 6. I want my 140-page PDF to appear directly. Do you have a chance to send a sample code? Please help me, I won’t be making a presentation tomorrow.
Hi caglyesiltepe,
What do you mean by “open a pdf directly”? Can you describe your issue more detailed?
In the flip book effect, the images appear first. I don’t want the visual to appear, I want it to appear as a pdf directly, because there is only pdf in the project I made, no images, so it should only work with pdf. 
For the demo, I downloaded the images one by one from the pdf and uploaded them in a 50-page PDF, but it does not go further than 6 pages. Could you please solve my problem. I just want to add pdf I don’t want to upload images and let it show how many pages there are I have a presentation tomorrow or I will lose it please help
Also, there are no effects on the ios phone, why?
Hi caglayesiltepe,
You don’t need to create any images. The plugin is doing that for you automatically. Please again refer to the instructions and follow them step by step. On mobile devices there’s no page turn effect. That’s also same in our demo.
Best regards

Yes I made the folder structure htdocs magalone_folder documents document1 full.pdf I created upload.php like this and added the pdf but I still get images that say 1-2-3-4-5-6. It does not go beyond 6 pages. What kind of system is this?
There are 6 values in json, so publishing 6 pages is ridiculous. You need to add the pdf, you need to open as many pages as the pdf.
Hi caglayesiltepe,
When the image generation process stops for some reason, there’s an issue with your PDF file. Please check the PDF at (page 7) if there’s anything different from the other pages (size, resolution, alpha etc.) which may be the cause for the problem.
Hope that helps.
