    Hi!
    On a fresh install of Expressionengine I added a custom field for publishing images in from the filemanager.
    Adding one image is no problem. But there it ends. Should I not be able to add more images? There is a link under the first image that says ‘Add file’.

    I have been searching the docs for ‘Add file’ but found nothing except of an old changelog note on bug #14198.

    Oh, One more thing!
    I tried to solve my problem using Matrix, which sort of works. But there I run into a similar issue. In the Matrix-field I can only have two columns. I simply cannot save the third column. Could these two issues be related?

    I am on EE2.5.1 and among other addons I’m trying out Kreas ‘Content Elements’

    And again. Almost the same issue when I try to list images in Grid Lite. This time I got an annoying PHP errormessage.

    Hi David,

    I’m sorry for the confusion here, but one File field = one file.

    If you need to add more than one file, you have to use something like Matrix, Channel Files, or Channel Images,

    I do empathize with your frustration using Grid Lite, but that is a third-party add-on and you will need to get in touch with the author regarding those PHP errors. Perhaps it hasn’t been updated for 2.5.1 yet?

    Cheers,
