Multi file uploader, not showing images

Plugins
#1

Hi everyone, This is probably a basic fix but…

I did the tutorial on youtube for this, uploading more than one pic at a time and yay it works but…
I’m using the multi file uploader in a pop up. Next to the multi file uploader in the pop up is a repeating group, sharing current cells file, allowing the user to upload more than one file(picture) at a time, the uploader shows the file and the repeating group next to it shows the image uploaded so the visual. once you close the pop up, there is a big repeating group to display the IMAGES ONLY.

However

When I close the pop up I can see all the uploads in the big repeating group so I save all the uploads and yay in my database they show…but when I revisit the page or refresh it

Sometimes I can see only one picture uploaded out of 5 and other times no pictures show up at all. All pictures get saved in my database but only one will show in the repeating group, if that

This is being used on a repeating group. type of content = file
data source = Multi File uploader 's value

Any help would be appreciated

Hi of course I can
The plug in is called, Multifile uploader-Drop zone

here’s a screenshot of the main repeating group and save button workflow. They should be showing up in the main repeating group, after the pop up is closed. You can see them all but after saving them and refreshing the page or leaving and returning they aren’t there, only saved in my database. Sometimes when it shows one picture after refreshing, you can see the separator lines but blank inside all of them but one, so they are there obviously but for some reason not showing…

I have them being saved as individual pictures as well as saving all of them in one as a file.

Hello @sundaegoldie,

Ok now I understand, thanks for clarifying it and sorry for any inconvenience.

Now to the issue. After you refresh the page images shouldn’t display anymore, it is strange that you get some images displayed. The idea is that in your case the source of images in the repeating group is Multifile Element and after the refresh, the data in Multifile Element is cleared. If you want to have the images displayed after the refresh, you should have in the Data Source of the RG, the object from the database where the images are saved.

I hope that will help,

Best Regards,
Alex

@alex.grimacovschi, encountered an annoying little bug. when i remove a file from a list to be uploaded the state of ‘uploader is empty’ goes to ‘yes’ even if I have another file to upload

The ‘uploader is empty’ is often ‘no’ when the page loads also
