    Hi there,

    is it somehow possible to use "image" as a field type for a custom field? If not is this something you are thinking of implementing in the near future?

  2. The Post Custom field supports the file upload field type. You can then limit this to only accept image extensions.

    Ok, thanks. That is an option. But I would like to add the sub-fields like title, caption and description (or even some others if possible - to hold for instance the menu_order of the image). Is there a good way of adding those fields?

  4. Because you are using a custom field rather than the Post Image field it can't be done with a single field. However, you can certainly add additional custom fields to your form and store this information as additional custom field values on the post that is created. That would be how you would handle this situation.
