CKFinder 3 - Sample JavaScript Plugins

This repository contains sample plugins for CKFinder 3 created as examples for the CKFinder documentation.

To learn about writing your own plugins, read the Creating Plugins article in the CKFinder 3 documentation.

Loading Plugins

To run sample plugins:

1. Download sample plugins and extract them to the <ckfinder>/plugins folder. You can download plugins:

• Using git.
• By pressing the Download ZIP button.

2. Enable selected plugins with the config.plugins option.

Example

<script src="/ckfinder/ckfinder.js"></script>
<div id="ckfinder1"></div>
<script>
	CKFinder.widget( 'ckfinder1', {
		width: 800,
		height: 700,
		plugins: [
			'StatusBarInfo'
		]
	} );
</script>

Note: In CKFinder 3 it is possible to load plugins from a URL, so you can point your CKFinder to the plugin using fully qualified URL. Due to GitHub protection which sends files as plain/text, using URLs that point directly to GitHub may not work:

<script src="/ckfinder/ckfinder.js"></script>
<div id="ckfinder1"></div>
<script>
	CKFinder.widget( 'ckfinder1', {
		width: 800,
		height: 700,
		plugins: [
			'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ckfinder/ckfinder-docs-samples/master/StatusBarInfo/StatusBarInfo.js'
		]
	} );
</script>
