I am trying to:
Hey there,
i noticed when i select an Image within a form, this image is not directly uploading anymore. I remember before there was a file upload progress bar? is This gone now?
Because i need to directly upload an image before submitting.
Can this still be done? Hopefully!
cheers
File upload progress bar is "gone" in favor of real WordPress Media Uploader, that is correct.
If you do not use the Media Uploader, you can still use the old "classic" (no ajax) methods.
Does the Media Uploader not serve the case here as well?
It allows both to add or upload images/data ahead of submitting.
Without Media Uploader, there will be only HTML upload (no progress bar, and no "previous" upload).
Please let me know if you can resolve this with the Media Uploader, or if there are particular reasons why you prefer the "old" mechanism.
I can ask in the developer groups if it is under consideration to change/enhance this, accordingly.
hey beda,
hmm...what is the Media Uploader? How can i test this. Haven´t heard about it till now?
cheers
Ohhhh you mean the wordpress Media Center!?
No defintily not. i don´t want my users to access to this. they just should upload the regular way.
How can i enable the old non ajax methods?
The WordPress media Uploader is what you generally use when uploading media in WordPress (Dashboard > Media).
You can activate it in the toolset forms when editing a form under the section Other settings: Use the WordPress Media Library manager for image, video, audio, or file fields.
You can read more about this feature here:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-the-native-wordpress-media-manager-in-front-end-forms/
(This was a very often requested feature, released here https://toolset.com/2019/06/toolset-forms-2-4-and-maps-1-8-release/)
Maybe this helps resolve the requirements of the project you are working on?

Our replies crossed.
I understand, but the WordPress media uploader is the Regular way, so to say. Toolset Forms AJAX upload mechanism was a custom solution (and uncostumizable thru the user) of Toolset.
Then there is currently no other solution but the non-ajax upload, or the WordPress Media Uploader, as is available when inserting media upload fields in a form.
Adding other methods of upload would require new features, that can be requested here in the case:

I apologize I missed the last question about "How can i enable the old non ajax methods?"
The "old, non ajax methods" are what you saw when you opened this ticket, where you mentioned "i noticed when i select an Image within a form, this image is not directly uploading anymore. I remember before there was a file upload progress bar? is This gone now?"
There is no more AJAX - Only WordPress upload, or non-AJAX as you see it now.
My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
