Using elFinder 2.x UI with 1.x connector - Studio-42/elFinder GitHub Wiki
elFinder 2.x connector uses new JSON protocol but it is still possible to use new elFinder 2.x UI part (JavaScript) with old elFinder 1.x connector through proxy transport class.
Backward compatibility was tested with next connectors:
Download and extract elFinder 2.x, make changes to elfinder.html
as described below:
<script src="js/proxy/elFinderSupportVer1.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
$().ready(function() {
$('#finder').elfinder({
url : '../elfinder-1.x/src/connectors/php/connector.php',
transport : new elFinderSupportVer1(),
// more options
});
});
You don't need to make any changes to your connector.
