Upload files in Front End

  • I have built a Custom Post Type to manage sending files.
    I set up a group of fields in the ACF panel that must be filled by the front end where public information and upload files will be uploaded.


    By accessing my custom post type with the fields at the wordpress dashboard, when you upload files it does not show the files in the library.

    However in doing so the front end all the files of the libraries are shown.

    How not to show the library files when uploading the front end?
    How to define the format of files that can attached?
    How to limit the amount of files that can be attached?

    If there is another topic that answers my doubts this, please tell me
