CKEditor, CKFinder.

Hi there,

It's probably a deadly-dumb mistake from my side, but after 4 houres of going trough config files, redownloading all possible files about 5 times and still not getting it to work has been... annoying.

So here's the thing.

I downloaded CKEditor, tried the sample html file and was happy. It worked.
Then I downloaded CKFinder.
I went to: /ckfinder_php_2.0/ckfinder/_samples/fckeditor.html to try and combine the 2 when I got this irritating error which has been occupying me for this entire evening.

Error: FCKeditor not found.This sample assumes that FCKeditor (not included with CKFinder) is installed inthe "/fckeditor/" path. If you have it installed in a different place, just editthis file, changing the wrong paths in the <head> (line 5) and the "BasePath"value (line 32).

Now I've downloaded both, currently this is the mapping setup:

ckfinder, simply as back up also in the root.. just in case
[/list]

Still, it aint working. I actually dropped TinyMCE because the image upload didn't fit my needs, since you can't upload images there, from your local pc. + CKEditor looks way cooler.

Can somebody please guide me trough what I'm supposed to do?

I mostly code some php, can handle small amounts of javascript, but never written any js myself.

Trying to make a CMS for my own site, (my portfolio).

Thanks in advance.

Re: CKEditor, CKFinder.

If you have installed CKEditor then you should try the CKEditor sample, not FCKeditor.

Re: CKEditor, CKFinder.

Ok, that was indeed very dumb of me.

I have been looking further in the documentation and found the word ' slibing'. Wikipedia translated that word for me and found out CKFinder and CKeditor are not supposed to be in eachother. Simply root, and then both in the root folder. Not part of eachother.

Then I tried the sample but had absolutely no visual at all.

So instead of begin at square 1 im actually at square 0, or even -1 >.<

Ah well, a change is always welcome I guess >.<

Re: CKEditor, CKFinder.

Ok, Somehow got the editor working again.

But whenever I try one of the samples of the Finder, i get this error:

System error
X
getDocumentRootPath() . $baseUrl; } $utilsSecurity =& CKFinder_Connector_Core_Factory::getInstance("Utils_Security"); $utilsSecurity->getRidOfMagicQuotes(); /** * $config must be initialised */ $config = array(); $config['Hooks'] = array(); $config['Plugins'] = array(); /** * read config file */ require_once CKFINDER_CONNECTOR_CONFIG_FILE_PATH; CKFinder_Connector_Core_Factory::initFactory(); $connector =& CKFinder_Connector_Core_Factory::getInstance("Core_Connector"); if(isset($_GET['command'])) { $connector->executeCommand($_GET['command']); } else { $connector->handleInvalidCommand(); }
OK

And there's a config.php and a config.js in the samples folder.

When this works, there's only the intergration left. (1/3 done!)

altough I'm quite lost on how I'd intergrate the 2.

I'm just going to keep on trying.

Any advice is always welcome

Re: CKEditor, CKFinder.

Oke, problems again.

I'm trying to get CKFinder to work, but I keep getting the ' Folder not found error' before I even try to upload something.

Config.php at this moment:

$baseUrl = '/userfiles/';

$baseDir = realpath(dirname(__FILE__))."/userfiles/";

My ckfinder / ckeditor are in a subfolder of a subdomain.
example:
<<subdomainname.domain.com/ckfinder>>
Same for the editor.

What am I doing wrong? ;x
