    So I have built custom sliders for clients using custom blocks but these require to manually enter each image one at a time. Which is fine for really any slider that's 10 or less but now I have a client that will need to upload a large quantity of images for clients. We are talking 100-200 images so uploading one at a time is out of the question.

    My question is there a way to make it so my custom block allows you to select a group of images and attach them all at once.

    Hi Andrew,
    Unfortunately, the Image field doesn't accept multiple images, only 1 image.

    Thanks for bringing that up.

    As we are also uploading different images of ilt20 draft to the slider manually. As there is bundles of plugins which are perform this task automatically. But those are not placing the images in the proper sequence. So better is to do it manually.

    Hi, yes you can do it by using different plugins as I am already doing it for my baby detergent website and it's working good, thanks.

    Yes, it is possible to modify your custom block to allow users to upload a group of images at once. You can do this by incorporating a file upload feature into your custom block that allows users to select multiple images at once.

    There are different ways to achieve this, depending on the technology stack you are using for your custom block. For example, if you are using JavaScript, you can use a file input element with the "multiple" attribute to allow users to select multiple files at once. If you are using a server-side technology like PHP, you can use a form that allows users to select multiple files and upload them all at once.

    Once the images have been uploaded, you can then display them in your custom slider using a loop or some other method. This will allow users to easily add a large number of images to your custom slider without having to upload them one at a time.

    It sounds like you're dealing with a situation where you need to create a slider or image gallery that can handle a large quantity of images efficiently. To achieve this, you might want to consider using content management systems (CMS) or this website-building platforms that offer bulk image upload features and dynamic galleries. Here are some steps you can take:
