You must use CKFinder from the domain where it's installed or the browser won't allow to talk to it due XSS security restrictions.

Re: Upload Toolbar and Folders Not Appearing

I believe I'am using CKFinder on where it is installed. I'm uploading everything to a remote server where the CKFinder folders is stored. The only thing I'm doing remotely is opening up CKFinder from a web application that is on the intranet, it should still be able to open up remote web pages without a problem.

But the window with CKFinder can't talk to a window from another domain.

Re: Upload Toolbar and Folders Not Appearing

Ah that would make sense. Thank you for that explanation. Do you have any recommendations on how I should go about making my pictures available to the outside world when I create them on a Intranet? I could mirror the folder to a outside web server but then I would need to change the paths of the images in the text body to look for the outside web images.

You could use CKFinder in the intranet server, but configure it so it returns relative paths or paths using the public domain.

Re: Upload Toolbar and Folders Not Appearing

I have the same issue. We have a public server with image files on it, and CKeditor on a intranet private site behind the firewall. What you're saying is I can not use the CKeditor on the private server and CKfinder on the public server, by design of XSS security restrictions?

How would I go about having CKfinder return a URL or path for the public server? Could you elaborate?
thanks.
