CKEditor Integration

CKEditor 4

To integrate CKFinder with CKEditor all you have to do is pass some additional configuration options to CKEditor:

CKEDITOR.replace( 'editor1', {
    filebrowserBrowseUrl: '/ckfinder/ckfinder.html',
    filebrowserUploadUrl: '/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Files'
} );

It is also possible to use CKFinder.setupCKEditor() as shown below:

var editor = CKEDITOR.replace( 'ckfinder' );
CKFinder.setupCKEditor( editor );

The sample below presents the result of the integration. You can manage and select files from your server when creating links or embedding images in CKEditor 4 content. In modern browsers you may also try pasting images from clipboard directly into the editing area as well as dropping images — the files will be saved on the fly by CKFinder.

CKEditor 5

To integrate CKFinder with CKEditor 5 all you have to do is pass some additional configuration options to CKEditor:

ClassicEditor
    .create( document.querySelector( '#editor2' ), {
        ckfinder: {
            uploadUrl: '/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Files'
        }
    } )
    .catch( error => {
        console.error( error );
    } );
