Modal Mode

The modal mode is similar to popup. The difference is that popups are opened using a separate browser window while in modal mode CKFinder is opened inside a modal container that is appended to current page document.

Multiple Modals

In some cases you may need more than one modal to handle multiple places that require selecting a file. Below you can find an example that fills each of the inputs with the URL of the selected file.

var button1 = document.getElementById( 'ckfinder-popup-1' );
var button2 = document.getElementById( 'ckfinder-popup-2' );

button1.onclick = function() {
	selectFileWithCKFinder( 'ckfinder-input-1' );
};
button2.onclick = function() {
	selectFileWithCKFinder( 'ckfinder-input-2' );
};

function selectFileWithCKFinder( elementId ) {
	CKFinder.modal( {
		chooseFiles: true,
		width: 800,
		height: 600,
		onInit: function( finder ) {
			finder.on( 'files:choose', function( evt ) {
				var file = evt.data.files.first();
				var output = document.getElementById( elementId );
				output.value = file.getUrl();
			} );

			finder.on( 'file:choose:resizedImage', function( evt ) {
				var output = document.getElementById( elementId );
				output.value = evt.data.resizedUrl;
			} );
		}
	} );
}
