Laravel-filemanager: Working with CKEditor Images button, but not with Link button

[docmojoman]

Laravel Framework 5.7.9
"unisharp/laravel-filemanager": "v2.0.0-alpha5"

I am using lfm with both ckeditor and as a standalone for file input fields. Lfm works great for standalone file input and within ckeditor's "Image" button _as seen below_.

Issue

I'd like to be able to link to a pdf file from within ckeditor. When I highlight the text that I'd like to link in ckeditor and access the lfm filemanager through ckeditor's "link" button, the file manager opens, but with no files present. (see below)

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but I cannot find anything in the documentation on how to resolve this.

Hi @docmojoman, we released v2.0.0-alpha6 today. Can you confirm if this issue still exists in v2.0.0-alpha6?

Sorry for getting back to you so late. I just upgraded to v2.0.0-alpha6 following these directions. I can confirm that this issue still exists.

The folders in the above screenshots were uploaded before I upgraded. I tried to upload new files, and got this error...

I thought there were some bugs with returning url of a file, but now I understand your first question. Please notice the url parameter type. When you open images gallery it is Images, and when you open links gallery it is Files.

If you want to see the same files in these two galleries, you need to make their type parameter the same(in this line, change value of type to files) when you integrate with CKEditor.

The bug with uploading files is not related to your original question, but I will fix it in these two days.

Thanks, I will try this out...

The failure when uploading was fix in v2.0.0-alpha7.
