About this plugin
zinejs Flipbook embeds a fast, GPU-accelerated page-flip reader in your posts and pages. Point it at a PDF from your Media Library and readers can flip, zoom, and page through it like a real book. A CSS fallback keeps it working on devices without WebGL.
Ways to add a flipbook:
- The Zine PDF Flipbook block: pick a PDF and set options in the editor.
- The Zine Image Flipbook block: pick a set of images.
- The [zinejs] shortcode: for the Classic editor, theme templates, and page builders.
js are bundled with the plugin, and the scripts are enqueued only on pages that actually contain a flipbook.

Controls: controls (true | false), controls-position (top | bottom | left | right), controls-scheme (auto | light | dark), controls-arrows, context-menu, loading, hints, deep-link. Permissions: allow-download, allow-print, allow-share. Covers: front-cover (URL), back-cover (URL).

By default the book drops to one page per spread when its container is narrower than 500px ( threshold ), so it stays readable on phones and in narrow theme columns. If your column is narrow but you still want two-page spreads (for example in cover mode), set responsive="false", or use the block’s Wide/Full alignment to give it more room.
