I'm trying in this front-end Gravity form to allow the user to upload a few "additional images".
I've created a Metabox field group for posts, and one of the fields is the "Image Advanced" field.
In the GF form editor I've added a "Post Field", used the type "File Upload", and mapped the field to the Metabox field ID.

When submitting the form the additional images get submitted to GF, but they don't appear in the post, and also not in the Media library.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

Can you please test with other simple fields like single_image or text? It is possible that the image_advanced field is more complicated when saving value to the database and GF does not support that.

Hi,

thanks for responding.
I've tested all Metabox image fields. None of them seems to work with Gravity Forms.
Other Metabox field types, like text, textarea, checkboxes, radio, number etc work fine without any problems. Only image fields don't seem to work.

And yes, I'm aware that the fields need to be populated in order to be found in the database. Otherwise I wouldn/t be able to find the field ID as a mappable field within GF. That's not the issue. The issue is that GF doesn't seem to be able to populate any Metabox image fields.
