    No matter what you select for uploader (basic vs wp), logged out users always get the basic uploader. This is mainly fine but doesn’t support image/file thumbnails. Can you point me to how we can render the image/file thumbnail after the file has been uploaded?

    Hi! You’re correct that logged out users can’t use the WP uploader. This is how the ACF file field works and if I’m not mistaken WordPress doesn’t support using the WP uploader without a signed in user.

    Using a tiny bit of Javascript it should be possible to add an image preview to a basic uploader. Check out this example from Mozilla detailing how such a feature can be implemented. Good luck!

    The example makes sense – can you point me to where we can override the form markup to add in such things? It doesn’t seem to be in the Advanced Form documentation – is it an ACF thing?
