3D FlipBook - Need to load PDF from a folder not visible to the web server

Hi,

We purchased the extended license recently, and need to protect the PDF from being in a publicly accessible folder. Since the plugin calls the PDF from a URL instead of a file path on the server, our PDF files have to be exposed to downloads. The extended license is for people who want to sell PDFs, but how can I sell something that is easily downloadable from my own web server?

Hoping that you can help fix this. Thanks,

Ed

Not possible - plugin render PDF in real time, but you can convert it to images and use them as sources.

When we convert to images it doesn't allow 100 images (100 pages) and stops at 75. All books created with large pages seem limited to 75 pages only. They don't display any more.

Set max_input_vars = 10000 in your php.ini https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10303714/php-max-input-vars - plugin does not have limits

This worked!

Note: We used a different flipbook plugin and that was able to add 100+ pages with the original setting for max_input_vars. Please add this to the install instructions, if it's not already there.

Thank you.
