CK Editor 5 link url not focussing when inside modal


Hi

I have an issue when using CKEditor 5 inside a modal - in that the link URL field doesn't get focus, so I can't type in the link.

I've read issues online but cannot seem to resolve.

Assistance would be great ! :-)

Hi,

I've had the same issue.

you can find your joy here (a working example for link, even for table properties):

Thanks. I'm using the standard CK5 editor (as opposed to the balloon) - but I can now get the link dialogue to appear, but still not able to focus on the link url field itself - it keeps focussing on another input field on page.

Strange one



Hi,

Can you try to remove tabindex attribute from the modal ?

Regards.



I've tried most things and still can't seem to get this to work.
This is the code I use to invoke the modal.

added to css :
--ck-z-default: 100 !important;
--ck-z-modal: calc( var(--ck-z-default) + 999 ) !important;

I've tried removing tabIndex.

The link box now pops up, where it didn't before - but I cannot seem to type into the link field - another input field within the modal window keeps or steals focus.


$("#edit-modal-lg").on("show.bs.modal", function (e) {
var button = $(e.relatedTarget);
var modal = $(this);
modal.find(".modal-body").load(button.data("remote"));
});



Ok - I managed to sort this, after much searching and head scratching.

First - the CSS :

inside the body element (not root)

--ck-z-default: 100;
--ck-z-modal: calc( var(--ck-z-default) + 999 );


then, this css class

.ck-body-wrapper{ z-index: 1300 !important;}


then - the CK editor element needs to be inside a new div

<div class="ck-body-wrapper">
in here
</div>



Thank you for sharing your solution. We will check this further and add Modal samples for CKEditor in the documentation. Appreciate your contribution!
