How to Enable Multiple Image Uploads

    I'd like to enable multiple image uploads on the site -i.e. instead of uploading files one by one, I wanna enable say upto 6 files in one go.
    Is that possible?

  2. That isn't currently possible. Gravity Forms uses the built in PHP file upload capabilities which does not allow for multiple files in one upload. In order to implement this we would have to use a Flash based uploader, which most people don't realize is what powers multi-file upload on sites that support it. We do plan on looking into this for a future release but it is not currently possible.

  3. This would be a great option for file uploads! I could really use this feature since all of my clients are sending me multiple photos at one time. Any chance it can be done sometime soon?

  4. Things you can use to achieve this:

    1. * wp_handle_upload() located in the wp-admin\includes\file.php
    2. * wp-admin\async-upload.php
    3. * wp-admin\media-upload.php
    4. * Write your own PHP script

    You can upload multiple files using multiple field inputs, currently. Don't know if it works by default GF...

    I only needed 2 file fields and currently use GF to upload them both from the same form. I custom coded how I handle them, but what is important to note is that the file information is sent in the $_POST variables
