Embed Protection

The latest Publuu function called Embed Protection is designed to give you total control over your flipbook’s sharing options. Thanks to this function your flipbook will only be accessible through your website. It won’t be possible to embed it on any other websites or share it via direct link.

Embed protection can be a perfect solution for those who:

  • Want to protect their highly sensitive content,
  • Wish to sell the access to their flipbooks,
  • Want to restrain who can view their flipbooks.

So, if you’d like to learn how exactly embed protection works and how to apply it to your flipbook, please read this guide.

IMPORTANT!

Embed protection is available only for Professional, and Premium plan subscribers. If your subscription plan is Basic, please upgrade it first to use this function.

 

How does embed protection work?

Let’s illustrate it with an example.

You add a gooddomain.com as the only site on which your flipbook can work. If you paste the embed code on gooddomain.com or any of its subdomains your publication will be embedded and displayed properly on this site.

But if anybody tries to access your flipbook outside the gooddomain.com, for example via direct link or any other website that hasn’t been added when activating the embed protection, he’ll see the following notification:

If you add also finedomain.com and easydomain.com to gooddomain.com, the flipbook will be viewable on these three domains, including all their subdomains.

Thus, simply speaking embed protection blocks accessing your flipbook on every site except the ones of your choice.

 

How to set the embed protection?

Follow these steps to do it properly.

Start with logging in to your account. Then, press the CUSTOMIZE button to enter the editor,

customize flipbook

find the SECURITY tab in the left-hand panel and click it to expand.

You’ll see two security options available at Publuu: password protection and embed protection. In this guide, we focus on the second one.

Keep going and shift the switch to enable the EMBED PROTECTION. You’ll know it’s active as soon as it turns blue.

Now you have to enter the URL address of the domain on which your flipbook can be embedded. There is no need to enter any subdomain URLs since your flipbook will work on all the subdomains of the chosen domain as well.

To add another domain, just click the ADD ANOTHER DOMAIN button and paste or type the URL. Publuu users are allowed to add up to three domains.
