As stated earlier issuu-pdf inserts your issuu doc-id, so no reason you cant just paste in https://issuu.com/USERID/docs/x/1?mode=a_p and cut and paste “x” from the issuu-pdf inserted code and “USERID” is your issuu username then delete issuu-pdf inserted code
Since writing that I found not all doc-ids will work in format https://issuu.com/USERID/docs/x/1?mode=a_p “x” is now the filename of your doc on issuu.com so you have to test every https://issuu.com/USERID/docs/x/1?mode=a_p entry you make. Why my latest doc works with “x” is doc-id and one I did a few weeks ago “x” is a filename I have no idea.
I’ve just remembered what I was exactly trying to do: getting the direct link to full-page view of the document on ISSUU.
Yes I came across that, I assume you are using manual code like “https://issuu.com/USERID/docs/x/1?mode=a_p” at present, where “x” is your issuu doc-id and “USERID” is your issuu username. This is called paper view + fill window option – if your a Microsoft word user you would call it page-width view. It has blue bar at top, dark grey border I don’t think you can change the border colour. You can choose “single page” option in that view.
“full-page view” I assume you mean paper view + “single page” option. Is that right?
The wordpress short-code that issue-pdf makes gives you flash object on your web page. If you mouse-over the page images it tells you click to “view in full screen”. If you click in this a flash object is running “outside” your browser in full screen mode. This is also true if you switch to magazine view (2 full pages fitted to screen size). At top of screen you have an icon for the view modes magazine/presentation/paper.

https://issuu.com/USERID/docs/x/1?mode=a_p and cut and paste “x” from the issuu-pdf inserted code and “USERID” is your issuu username then delete issuu-pdf inserted code.I use always replace their code with this (it’s just my preferences):
[pdf issuu_pdf_id=”x” allow_full_screen_=”0″ show_flip_buttons=”1″ layout=”browsing” autoFlip=”true” width=”400″ height=”350″ autoFlipTime=”4000″ allowfullscreen=true bgcolor=”y” ]
x=issuu doc if and y=6 char hex code for border color.What I REALLY wanted was paper view + “single page” option on first click WITH border colour I have chosen, but you can’t do both. I settled on the above code because of border color control which I get for magazine/presentation modes. If you choose paper mode this exits “full screen” mode and the browser changes web pages to “https://issuu.com/USERID/docs/x/1?mode=a_p”. From that point on changing view modes does not take you back to same views with your border colours. The differences here are just border color stays dark grey, no full screen mode (as you are in web browser window) and running directly under issuu.com domain not your website domain.
I however don’t think it’s a good idea to use this setup. This can cause issues with caching plugins.
Thanks for the tip. I am using caching so I still have no solution.
WP v3.5 has compatibility issue with “Issuu PDF Sync”. A development patch for v3.5 is in the support threads – https://github.com/pronamic/wp-issuu-pdf-sync/archive/develop.zip
where xx is Issuu document key as seen on Issuu.com
Just to clarify my instructions for the benefit of all readers. I did not say open or visit issuu.com. The plugin gets you the “xx” key for you. The key is inserted by the plugin in the post you are editing at the point where I indicated with “xx” in my example. The “as seen on issuu.com” did NOT mean you need to visit issuu.com and copy the code and insert it manually as that is what the plugin is doing. ??
After you install and configure “Issuu PDF Sync” plugin, you do not need to visit issuu.com again for any NEW PDF. The “Issuu PDF Sync” Installation and FAQ do not make it clear that you load your next PDF into wordpress media library FIRST, then the plugin will “push” it to issuu.com via the Issuu API. In the media library your PDF has a property indicating it “sync” status with issuu.com. You can then add to your post using the button described above.
Awesome Remco – I will give it a try.
Go to admin edit post page and use “add media” button to upload your pdf file from PC. Fill title details and save. For small less than 6 pages it will sync to Issuu.com usually within a minute.
Next on admin edit post page on your toolbar above text box is the “Issuu PDF sync” button (has Issuu logo on it) that will bring up screen to choose PDF and adjust defaults, select the file you have uploaded, press insert code button and it will return to editor and insert extra code similar to:
[pdf issuu_pdf_id="xx" allow_full_screen_="0" show_flip_buttons="1" layout="browsing" autoFlip="true" width="400" height="350" ]
where xx is Issuu document key as seen on Issuu.com
If the Issuu button is missing then switch it on in plugin setup page.
Thanks that fixed it
