I just discovered that if Image Advanced field is cloneable, I cannot get images attached to custom post and request for IDs from field returns empty array. This was not the issue few versions ago, it seems.

I have site where Image Advanced field was set to cloneable. If I remove that setting from the field, I will not get attached images visible on the backend. How can I get them visible again if I drop cloneable option from the field?

Hi,

Do you mean to attach images to a post on the Media page, list view? If not, can you please share some screenshots of the issue on your site?

Yes. If the Image Advanced is set to cloneable, images are not retrievable anymore via
```
<?php
	$images = rwmb_meta( 'portfoliogallery' );
$image_ids = array_keys( $images );
$shortcode = '[' . 'gallery ids="' . implode( ',', $image_ids ) . '" itemtag="div" icontag ="div" size="thumbnail" link="file"]';

echo do_shortcode( $shortcode );

?>
```
But when "cloneable" function is unset, images are retrieved OK, but previews are lost on backend, although post keeps array of uploaded images.

I have 2 copies of site to display this, how can I privately show the issue?

Hello there,

If you set the field image_advanced as a cloneable field, you will need to use 2 for loop to get the image ids. Here is an example:
```
$advanced_images = rwmb_meta( 'image_advanced_wyyzp67zec' );
$image_ids = [];
foreach ( $advanced_images as $advanced_image ) {
	foreach ( $advanced_image as $key => $image ) {
		array_push( $image_ids, $key );
	}
}
$shortcode = '[' . 'gallery ids="' . implode( ',', $image_ids ) . '" itemtag="div" icontag ="div" size="thumbnail" link="file"]';
```
