Customer Engagement and Presentation
Presentation Matters! At the core of an online flipbook lies the fundamental principle of customer engagement. Traditional document layouts fall short when it comes to captivating audiences. Scrolling through a PDF to consume content is not ideal, especially when the focus is more on presentation rather than mere information. Whether you're promoting an idea, product, artwork, or portfolio, showcasing it visually is far more impactful than simply listing it. It's no coincidence that websites are not solely text-based; their vibrant colors and interactive elements are designed specifically to foster CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT.

Loading Case 1: No Loading Icon + Long Message:
dFlip 3D Flipbook WordPress Usage & FAQs 1
If you see the loading message and don’t see a loading icon. Then the issue is related to code execution.
- Cause A – Other plugin error: Dear Flipbook uses jQuery to start the plugin and if other jQuery plugins cause any errors, the execution of Dear Flipbook is also disturbed. The flipbook never advances further and is stuck at the initial loading message. Check your Browser console (CTRL + SHIFT + I) and make sure there are no errors.
- Cause B – WordPress 5.5 update: This is similar to cause A. With WordPress 5.5, jQuery got updated and many other plugins failed, and that results in cause A. So check your Browser console (CTRL + SHIFT + I) and make sure there are no errors.
- Cause C – Dear Flipbook error: Check your Browser console (CTRL + SHIFT + I) and make sure there are no errors. If the error displayed is from dflip.min.js then report it using the contact lite support button below.
Loading Case 2: Loading Icon + Loading Message:
This is a normal case and the messages are displayed as the resources and files are loaded.
Loading Case 3: Loading stuck at certain Message:
This happens when the related file for loading is missing or inaccessible. For the best results, we recommend using(hosting) the files from the same domain. Check your Browser console (CTRL + SHIFT + I) and make sure there are no errors. If there are errors please report it using the contact lite support button below.
Loading Case 4: Cannot access File:
Make sure the file is accessible. Try opening the link in the browser, opening a new tab and inserting the PDF URL – see if it opens. Make sure it opens.
- Cause A – File is not available: Filename is mistaken or not added at all.
- Cause B – CORS Issue: This happens a lot when users don’t understand what file access means in the modern web. PDF files are not accessible from one domain to another just like that. They require permission. You need to set proper CORS permission into the domain where the PDF files exist, so that your domain can access it. NOTE: PDF files from online file-sharing servers like Google Drive, One Drive, Dropbox cannot be configured for CORS access. They won’t allow it.
