I want to paste directly from clipboard and insert it to the wysiwyg field of the Post Creation / Modification form. How can I achieve this with Toolset forms?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

With WordPress - images uploaded to posts are treated as attachments.

I'm not certain yet how exactly you want to copy the image from clipboard and even do you see it working when you edit the post in backend and copy the image from clipboard and paste to your desired field - do you see it working in backend when you save/publish the post?

Here is a sandbox site and you can auto-login to it using the following link and you can try to create new post for post type "Book" and try different copy/paste methods and check what works and what not and share your findings with us.

Minesh,

I want to paste images from my clipboard to the wysiwyg field of Toolset form. I installed this on the site I have the Toolset forms on: https://wordpress.org/plugins/the-paste/

The plugin enabled me to copy images from my clipboard in my computer to a post content in the admin area when you create / edit a post.

I tried doing the same on Toolset creation form.

We do not have any official integration with the plugin you shared "the-paste" as well as I can see there are some known issues: https://wordpress.org/plugins/the-paste/
[see known issues section]

Please check applications tested as well:

I do not have any solution to share but you may contact the plugin author to contact us in order to make the-paste plugin compatible with Toolset or file a new feature request.
