 * Is there a fix yet?
    I have the exact same problem using the same versions too.
   This site is hosted at hostgator. Any tips much appreciated. Thanks for the great
   plugin. Works great on my other sites.

 * Another note,
    This declaration in the stylesheet:
 * .flip-container:hover .flipper, .flip-container.hover .flippertransform { rotateY(
   180deg);
    }
 * is what actually flips the cards.
 * There are many other css transform properties you can use, and combining them
   can create some crazy effects. To see the entire set of css transform properties
   see:
    [http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_transform.asp](http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_transform.asp)
   and click on the PLAY IT button for each effect to experiment.

 * Certainly, but here a couple of caveats:
    1. I’ve done this on several sites,
   but some themes may create problems. Only way to tell is to try it and see. 2.
   Prepare to fiddle around with the css to get everything aligned right. On some
   themes this can be frustrating. 3. Be sure you make all the edits in either a
   REAL editor or on the TEXT tab of the WP editor. Using the Visual Editor in the
   WP interface won’t work.
 * Here is the html for 1 card. You can repeat as needed for how many flipcards 
   you require per row. On the example site I posted I used 3 cards/images per row.
 *     ```
       <!-- card -->
       <div class="main-flip-box center" id="flipcards"> <!-- This is the main div where a row of flipcards resides -->
       	<div class="flip-container"> <-- this is the div for the first indivudual card, repeat as necessary -->
       		<div class="flipper"> <-- this is where the front image goes -->
       			<div class="front"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-3447" alt="service3" src="http://front_image.png" width="356" height="265" /></div>
   
       		<div class="main-flip-box center back"> <-- This is where the image for the back goes -->
       			<img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://back_image.png" width="356" height="265" />
       				<h3 class="back-title">Title</h3>
       					This is a short description about this project and/or why it's relevant.
       					<a href="http://your_link">Link Text.</a>
       		</div>
       	</div>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * Basically, all this does is create the main div (1 row of flip cards) that contain
   2 more div to hold the front and back images. In this instance, the div for the
   BACK image contains other html elements (text, links, etc.) if you only want 
   to flip images you can lose those elements. There may be a more elegant solution
   to span the cards/images across the screen, but I’m not smart enough to figure
   it out. This method has worked with several WP themes for me.
 * Getting all the images aligned will be the hardest task. Be prepared to adjust
   image size, div width, float, display (inline, block, etc.) as required to play
   well with your theme. You can adjust all parameters with the style sheet, but
   depending on your theme you may find getting adjusting things easier to do with
   inline declarations first. Once you get everything where you want it, you can
   move all the properties into the stylesheet to clean the html up.
 * I haven’t got that far yet with this site; hence the inline styles.
 * The css is where the magic happens:
 *     ```
       /* simple */
   
       		.main-flip-box{
       			cursor: default;
       			float: left;
       			/* width: 1280px; */
       			margin: 0 0 0 5%;
       			overflow: hidden;
       			position: relative;
       			text-align: center;
       		}
   
       		 .main{
       			position:relative;
       			/* width:1200px; */
       			margin: 0 auto;
       		}
       		.flip-container {
       			-webkit-perspective: 1000;
       			-moz-perspective: 1000;
       			perspective: 1000;
       			float: left;
       			margin: 20px;
       			border: 1px solid #ccc;
       		}
   
       			.flip-container:hover .flipper, .flip-container.hover .flipper {
       			-webkit-transform: rotateY(180deg);
       			-moz-transform: rotateY(180deg);
       			transform: rotateY(180deg);
       			}
   
       		.flip-container, .front, .back {
       			width: 300px;
       			height: 210px;
       		}
   
       		.flipper {
       			-webkit-transition: 0.6s;
       			-webkit-transform-style: preserve-3d;
   
       			-moz-transition: 0.6s;
       			-moz-transform-style: preserve-3d;
   
       			transition: 0.6s;
       			transform-style: preserve-3d;
   
       			position: relative;
       		}
   
       		.front, .back {
       			-webkit-backface-visibility: hidden;
       			-moz-backface-visibility: hidden;
       			backface-visibility: hidden;
   
       			position: absolute;
       			top: 0;
       			left: 0;
       		}
   
       		.front {
       			z-index: 2;
       		}
   
       		.back {
       			-webkit-transform: rotateY(180deg);
       			-moz-transform: rotateY(180deg);
       			transform: rotateY(180deg);
       		}
   
       		.front .name {
       			font-size: 2em;
       			display: inline-block;
       			background: rgba(33, 33, 33, 0.9);
       			color: #f8f8f8;
       			font-family: Courier;
       			padding: 5px 10px;
       			border-radius: 5px;
       			bottom: 60px;
       			left: 25%;
       			position: absolute;
       			text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.05em #333;
   
       			-webkit-transform: rotate(-20deg);
       			-moz-transform: rotate(-20deg);
       			transform: rotate(-20deg);
       		}
   
       		.back-logo {
       			position: absolute;
       			top: 40px;
       			left: 90px;
       			width: 160px;
       			height: 117px;
       			background: url(logo.png) 0 0 no-repeat;
       		}
   
       		.back-title {
       			font-weight: bold;
       			color: #00304a;
       			position: absolute;
       			top: 15px;
       			left: 0;
       			right: 0;
       			text-align: center;
       			font-family: Courier;
   
       		}
   
       		.back p {
       			position: absolute;
       			bottom: 40px;
       			left: 35px;
       			right: 0;
       			text-align: center;
       			padding: 0 0px;
                   top: 50px;
       		}
       ```
   
 * Please note: I just pasted the css as is and not all of it is necessary if you
   aren’t going to have text on the back image. Some of the declarations are just
   for me to experiment with the layout once my client provides the info needed 
   to finish the site.
    The hardest part of the css will be defining the width of
   the containers to fit your theme.
 * Firebug is your best friend. If you know how to firebug it shouldn’t be hard 
   to tweak the layout to fit your template.
 * Lastly, and importantly, because the transformations (flip) are all css transforms–
   they will only work in modern browsers.
 * Hope that helps and good luck.

 * I did it on a site I’m working on right now with html and css.
    You can see the
   effect working here: [http://www.cbdtesting.biz/](http://www.cbdtesting.biz/)
   scroll down a bit to see it working. You have to mouseover the tiles in the Recent
   Work Section. As previously noted, it’s not an intuitive effect and marginal 
   UX, but it is fun to do. The original theme was purchased from themeforest. All
   modifications were added in the editor for the page and the css was added in 
   the custom css area of the theme. Site is still under development, but the effect
   works. This version flips the image to display text, but that could easily be
   changed to show another pic. If that’s what you want I can post how I did it.
   Good Luck.
