Trouble using it as a partial

[seanparko]

Hello,
I'm trying to use the file browser as a partial page element so I can embed it into different pages on my website. Is there some way of doing this? I've tried create a local copy of file_browser.html.twig in my theme folder and editing it, but it just results in an error and is unusable.

Thanks.

Late reply but adding in case useful to others. Its pretty easy to get this to work once you've figured it out. The code in the provided template tells you what is happening - the top part is the plugin functionality, the bottom part (from about line 80, when the block content starts) is the viewable page in the front end. This isn't to be used as an include, it's a full page template that calls the base partial (for the header area of the interface). You could probably call the filename anything.

• Copy the file file_browser_plugin.html.twig to your templates folder.
• Create a page called 'file browser' as normal in the admin section, with the md file calling the file_browser_plugin.html.twig as its template. In user/pages you should now see a folder for 'file browser' with an .md file called file_browser_plugin.md
• Configure the plugin as you like in admin, and add the file source. Use user://files first, to make sure its working. Experiment with other routing depending on your server and needs.

I did not manage to get it working with a path outside of the grav filetree on my localhost but Im testing that in a remote instance. I also note that if you add display-line to the buttons CSS, it plays nicer in the interface layout :)

Thanks to the dev, this is a good file browser plugin, still work fine with the latest grav but some care and testing needs doing before it runs the way you might need it.
