  Issuu is now looking different from what it was before. It used to be able to have visitors to our page click on it and they would be taken to an enlarged version of that.
  I used the code I found in another discussion forum.
  Here is what I have right now:
  [gigya src="http://static.issuu.com/webembed/viewers/style1/v1/IssuuViewer.swf" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="mode=embed&layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Fcolor%2Flayout.xml&backgroundColor=#E3E3E3&showFlipBtn=true&documentId=131001072525-163f8eb548a552ca3c21e9b8ce8609e3" width="300" height="200" ]

  I would really to have it back to what it was before. I’m not really a fan of zooming in and the different reading views that it is now showing. Any help with this is very much appreciated!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  issuu changed things again and the gigya workaround here https://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/inserting-issuu-docs/ is not longer working.

  Is there any way that this will be resolved? Either now or in the future?

  The gigya shortcode is a workaround that’s not supported by WordPress.com.

  My instructions are working (and you have used them correctly):
  https://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/inserting-issuu-docs/
  Your problem is that the sidebar on Academica is only 200px wide, so there’s no room for the full-screen button to show. You need to insert the doc into a static page instead of the sidebar, and set larger dimensions.

  Well the problem is that the design has changed. The Issuu box used to be able to let people click on it and our paper would open larger in another window. It now doesn’t have that option. That is what I was wondering about; it if could be changed.
