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;
            } );
        }
    } );
}
