How to Display Multiple flipbooks? #

You can display multiple books at once. We recommend using Book Categories and adding your books to those categories.

[dflip books="category-a"][/dflip]

Displays all the books in category named “category-a“. only 5 latest books will be displayed.

Books limited to only 5! #

By default the multiple books are limited to 5. you can increase the limit by adding the number or showing all.

[dflip books="category-a" limit="-1"][/dflip]

Displays all the books in category-a

More Examples

[dflip books="category-a,category-b" limit="-1"][/dflip]
[dflip books="all" limit="-1"][/dflip]

Notice the limit attribute… -1 for all, 5 for 5 , 10 for 10..   These are created as thumbnails by default.. To convert to buttons use the following shortcode:

[dflip books="category-a" limit="-1" type="button"][/dflip]

Multiple Book Shortcodes(default type is thumb):

//All books
[dflip books="all"][/dflip]

//All books of category "fiction"
[dflip books="fiction"] [/dflip]

//Multiple books with id 13,15,16
[dflip books="13,15,16"] [/dflip]
