How to Get FlipBook into Fullscreen Mode on Mobile

Question

I am creating a newsletter and exporting as a FlipBook. I am publishing it to WordPress. When I open the link on a computer, I can put it into fullscreen. I am unable to do the same when opening it on a mobile phone (I have only tried on iPhone.) The fullscreen button is there, but it does not do anything.

The flipbook is responsive to the device layout. If the flipbook is showing up as a two-page spread on the desktop and as a single page on mobile (in portrait mode), then you can force it to be a two-page spread by adding the following code in the Resources section of the Export HTML5 with in5 dialog:

getOrientation = function(){ return 'landscape'; }; 

If you only want to force it to be a two-page spread on mobile, then you can add the following code:

var getOrientOrig = getOrientation;
getOrientation = function(){ return touchEnabled ? 'landscape' : getOrientOrig; };

Sounds good. :)

Oh, and if your content for WordPress should be responsive, you might check that the in5 WordPress plugin is set to be responsive:
