[Resolved] Media library on small devices

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The user would like to use the Gutenberg editor on the frontend.
He also wants to be able to upload files from the frontend.

Solution:
There is no way to load the block editor on the frontend with Toolset. The only way I know to load the block editor on the frontend is using this plugin, but I don't think it will be working with Toolset Forms. There is no official WordPress support to use the Gutenberg editor on the frontend.

Note that it is required that the user has the “upload_files“ capability(by default, authors and above). Check the table on this article

I have two questions about the toolset form:

1. Why can't I select and upload images from the Worpress media library in the responsive design of my topic? This is possible in the desktop version of my theme.

2. Can I load the block editor into my frontend using the toolset form?

Kind regards

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

For the 2nd question, there is no way to load the block editor on the frontend with Toolset. The only way I know to load the block editor on the frontend is using this plugin, but I don't think it will be working with Toolset Forms. There is no official WordPress support to use the Gutenberg editor on the frontend.

Regarding your 1st question, I just ran a test on my mobile and I was able to load the media library on a form in the frontend.
Note that it is required that the user has the “upload_files“ capability(by default, authors and above). Check the table on this article

However, If you think I am missing something, please provide more details on your use case.
