How to copy, move, and delete Flipbooks

How to perform essential housekeeping on your iPaper account, to make sure you only keep what's relevant.

Updated over a year ago

Keeping your account organized is important, as it minimizes the risk of human-caused errors, such as setting an old Flipbook live, or deleting one that is currently active.

Copy, move, or delete a Flipbook with a single (right)-click

  1. From the Flipbooks overview, right-click on the Flipbook you want to move, copy or delete.

  2. From the dropdown menu, select the action you wish:

    1. Copy

    2. Move

    3. Delete

Additional considerations when copying, moving, or deleting a Flipbook

Copying a Flipbook

  • When copied, a Flipbook retains all settings, content, and Enrichments.

Moving a Flipbook

  • Moving a Flipbook to another folder will change its URL. See why here.
    ⚠️ ​If you are linking to a flipbook on your website, and you move it to another folder in iPaper, the link on your website will no longer work.

  • You cannot have two Flipbooks with the same URL in the same folder.
    ⚠️ ​​Moving a Flipbook will fail if a Flipbook with the same URL already exists in the destination folder.

  • The Flipbook is moved with all existing settings, content, and enrichments intact.
    ⚠️ ​​​It will not automatically inherit settings from the destination folder.

Deleting a Flipbook

  • Deleting a Flipbook is a permanent action.
    ⚠️ ​It is not possible to recover deleted Flipbooks. Statistics for that Flipbook will be removed.
