Using Book Shelf (Pro)

1 min read

Book Shelf is a pro feature available since version 2.1

Book Shelf is not applicable to single flipbook shortcode, only to multiple books shortcode

Shortcodes with id attribute : [dflip id="123"][/dflip] will not create shelves. It represents single book

Shortcodes with books attribute: [dflip books="123,234"][/dflip] or [dflip books="my_category"][/dflip]and will create shelves, they represent multiple books.

Flipbooks displayed using categories or books shortcode can be provided with book shelf. You can use a image of your liking. We recommend using wood texture.

Stone/Brick Texture: #

Concrete Texture: #

Wood Texture: #

How To add Shelf Image: #

Using Global Settings: #

You can add a common book shelf to all multiple books(categories) shortcode. Goto dFlip Books-> Global Settings -> Popup/Lightbox -> Books Shelf Settings

Tip: To disable shelf in certain places when shelf is enabled globally, add shelf-image="none" in the shortcode. Example: [dflip books="manuals" shelf-image="none"][/dflip]


Using Shortcode: #

If you have not set a global shelf or want to change the shelf for certain category, you can use shelf-image attribute to add shelf. It takes following values:

Possible ValuesDescription
Image ID
[dflip books="manuals" shelf-image="4042"][/dflip]
Image id of WordPress Media
Image URL
[dflip books="manuals" shelf-image="https://yourdomain.com/images/image.jpg"][/dflip]
Image URL of the image file
None
[dflip books="manuals" shelf-image="none"][/dflip]
No shelf image to be used.

The shelf-image id is the id of image you upload to your WordPress admin.

    Does this feature only work in the paid version?
