Sounds as if there are multiple causes of the Gallery field not being supported in a Front-End form.
For me, the solution was to grant the ‘Upload Files’ capability to the user. SOLVED.
(In my case, I’m using MemberPress and Members, and I granted the capatility to the ROLE in question.)
Hope this helps
Nix that.
It’s not just ACF having a problem with uploading media. I also cannot upload a new file from the edit window of a standard page or post. Again, I can choose from the Media Library, but the “Upload Files” tab is empty.
I should have checked this before posting the original post. Sorry.
I posted this in another thread, but I thought nwadave might want to see it.
I’m displaying ACF data in a Genesis theme by adding an action to the genesis_entry_content hook.
My scenario is a site for an artist who makes photographs and paintings. I added a field group called “Photography”, with the following fields:
Camera; Lens; Lighting; Aperture; Shutter Speed; Processing Details
The new custom function kicks in if a post’s category is either ‘photography’ or its subcategory. (I’m going to attack custom fields for paintings after a walkthrough with my client.)
I documented my solution on my blog, here:

PS: Boy am I glad I finally started using ACF. Not sure what took me so long!
I’m a little late to the party, but I came up with a solution that adds an action to the genesis_entry_content hook.

HTH. And I’m interested in other approaches.
