• Hi, I followed the tutorial on tuts+ to add a custom meta box and I was wondering if it was possible to add an image input on the repeatable section? I use the code below:
    Thanks in advance ??

  • I was trying to figure this one out as well, but with no reliable results. I’m resorting to using wordpress galleries instead. Use wp_query() to grab the images that were uploaded from the native media uploader with respect to the current page. (Was going to use it for background slides for a particular page template).

    Tammy (the Tutorial author) has a newer version of the metabox code on github. The repeatable section is updated that includes the ability to choose which type of repeatable field you want (text, check box, image, file, date, etc). However, the code isn’t finished and doesn’t work right out of the box. You’d have to play around with it and see if you can get some results. I was unable, however I’m using it in a child theme.
