Hi
I have a frontend submission form with an upload image field.
1 - At this time, if a user tries to upload an image which is over the max file size, there is no message to warn the him. Is there a way to warn the user? I don't find anything in advanced tab about max file size within the validation rules.
2 - While an image is uploaded by a user, there is nothing to that the image is currently uploading. Most of the time, the users are submitting the form without waiting the uploading is finished. Is there a way to disable the submit button until the lages is finished to upload?

Thank you

Hello,

Please use the field file_upload and its feature Binding events to display a message when a file is uploaded or when an error occurs.

Thank you Peter. I will try the binding events.
Could you confirme 2 things about Mime Type using by file_upload?
1. Does it work to check Mime type in validation rules?
2. Mime Type format is for exemple image/jpeg, not only jpeg or jpg?

Hello,

1. No, there is a description in the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/fields/file-upload/
MIME type of files which we want to show in the Media Library. Note: this is a filter for items in the media popup, it doesn't restrict file types when uploading.

2. Just the extension. Here is an example:
'mime_type' => 'application,audio,video,jpeg'

Do I just fill in Binding events in the custom settings?
