sometime after 3.1.0: images in Media Library not showing which post they are attached to
-
After adding an image to an ACF field, Media Library does not show that they are attached to any particular post. I know this used to work with at least 3.1.0.
With 3.1.5, 1.6, and 1.7, it definitely doesn't work. Now i'm back to 3.1.0.
Thankfully I'm only using repeatable fields and not any of the other special features added since then.
Edit: To clarify, all images attached to a post with earlier versions are shown in Media Library correctly "attached" to a post, even when using a newer version of ACF. Images attached with a newer version are not shown to be attached in the library. -
hi there...I'm new to ACF however I do confirm that the images are not attached to post and I would like to ....so to have galleries automatically working...any idea for a workaround beside manually attach each image by Media?
-
I would like to confirm this or similar behavior as well. when trying to insert an image into a IMAGE Field Type. if i go to the Media Library no thumbnails show up (just image names) and no options to insert the image.
Maybe this is the normal behavior - but its cumbersome to always have to choose an image from my computer instead of the post Gallery or Media Library every time i want to insert and image in to an IMAGE Field Type.
thanks- -
FYI - I had this issue with WP 3.4.2 and ACF 3.5.0
Interestingly, a solution turned up on the Wordpress forums:

When I try to add an image or file to a field from the media library, I can't see my images. I can see how many files I've got -- it displays "Images (5)" at the top, as it should -- but it won't actually display anything below that. I noticed that a few people have posted about this problem with no real solution, so I thought I'd share how I fixed it myself.
I played with the frame's URL and noticed that it works just fine if I remove "&type=image" or "&type=file". Marvellous! :D
To get rid of this bit of the URL permanently, I edited js/input-actions.js to remove "&type=image" from lines 421 & 1486 and "&type=file" from line 365. It works perfectly now.

Elliot, maybe this will shed some light on something? As the proposed solution works for me as well. -
Hey guys,
Is this a case of having a registered taxonomy called type? This is a namespace that is reserved by WP and will cause issues such as this -
In my case I did indeed have a taxonomy called 'type'. After renaming it, the media library works again :) Strange, and good to remember to take care with reserved taxonomy names.
