Is there any possibility to open the media library with a folder (with icons for example). i want to give the user the possibility to choose a file from there instead of uploading one.

Hi,

Unfortunately no. The image field and file field are just wrappers for WordPress own media library functionality.

If you don’t have too many files you could add them as a custom select dropdown.

Just add the file URL as the value and file name as label.

Then when you fetch the field you’ll get the file URL directly.
