    Selecting mulitple images using image_advanced selector tool I see that the images are now stored as serialized in the database even if I use the "Clone as multiple" option. I am using 0 plugin so it cannot be a cause. I now must intercept get_post_meta to unserialize images arrays (no big deal but I have to change many occurences...

    Hello,

    The field image_advanced still saves multiple images in multiple rows to the database.
    - If you enable the option cloneable and "clone as multiple", the field value will save an array of images per clone in the database.
    - If you disable the option "clone as multiple", all images will be saved in one row.

    I hope that makes sense.

    Do you use the option cloneable for the image advanced field? If yes, the field value will be serialized in the database as it is.

    Hello,
    Yes I use cloneable AND clone as Multiple AND sortable. But whatever I change does not make any difference in the database, it is saved as a single raw (serialized). Looks like 'clone as multiple' is not doing anything for me.
    But no problem, I just check if data is serialized before trying to use it... just an additional test, no big deal! But it used to worked before, that's why I was surprised to get screwed datas... I cannot say when it stopped working.
    Thanks

    I stopped using the cloneable option. All is fine without it. Array is in multiple raws in the DB.
    Problem solved. Thx
