Failed to configure ckfinder using ckeditor

Question

I am trying to integrate ckfinder with ckeditor. Everything is in order, except for one. when I try to upload an image, I get this error (please check the image)

This says, “The file browser is disabled for security reasons. Contact your system administrator and check the CKFinder configuration file”

Who can help me? You are welcome.

Answer 1

Look in the ckFinder config file, you will see such a function:

 function CheckAuthentication() { return false; } 

By default, CheckAuthentication() is disabled for security reasons, because it will allow any user to upload files to your server.

For testing purposes, you can return true , but the fact is that you implement some logic only for authorization of an authorized user.

 function CheckAuthentication() { //put some logic here return isset($_SESSION['IsAuthorized']) && $_SESSION['IsAuthorized']; } 

Answer 2

A simple solution is to force the authentication method to use a function that always returns true using the following code in your configuration file.

Your Script (for codeigniter):

 if(login()){ set_cookie('ckf_role','admin',2592000*10); // 10 month } 

Top:

  $config['authentication'] = function() { return true; }; 

Middle:

  session_start(); $config['roleSessionVar'] = 'CKFinder_UserRole'; $_SESSION['CKFinder_UserRole'] = !empty($_COOKIE['ckf_role']) ? strtolower($_COOKIE['ckf_role']) : "guest"; $config['accessControl'][] = array( 'role' => 'guest', 'resourceType' => '*', 'folder' => '/', 'FOLDER_VIEW' => false, 'FOLDER_CREATE' => false, 'FOLDER_RENAME' => false, 'FOLDER_DELETE' => false, 'FILE_VIEW' => false, 'FILE_UPLOAD' => false, 'FILE_RENAME' => false, 'FILE_DELETE' => false, 'IMAGE_RESIZE' => false, 'IMAGE_RESIZE_CUSTOM' => false ); $config['accessControl'][] = array( 'role' => 'admin', 'resourceType' => '*', 'folder' => '/', 'FOLDER_VIEW' => true, 'FOLDER_CREATE' => true, 'FOLDER_RENAME' => true, 'FOLDER_DELETE' => true, 'FILE_VIEW' => true, 'FILE_UPLOAD' => true, 'FILE_RENAME' => true, 'FILE_DELETE' => true, 'IMAGE_RESIZE' => true, 'IMAGE_RESIZE_CUSTOM' => true );
