FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Hello

-- It will happen if the field has not been saved since image-source parameter was added and before the default value was changed
this is a period of a few years


We added folder-mode like 7 years ago ??? and then 1 or 2 years ago ?? the default value for image source was changed to "folder-mode".

- since the parameter is missing from the JSON string there was no quick way to auto-set the value for compatibility, like we have done for other upgraded field, although with some extra work it is possible to do

The field only needs to be saved once with correct image source and the issue will not return

About the items saved and thus effected
After setting it to DB-mode, it should be possible for these items, to re-select the images, (possible only is if you know which images were selected before), since when field was bogusly in folder-mode, it did not delete files used by DB-mode

Thanks for answer.
I think it was something like that cause website was created years ago and fields were never edited since that.
Whatever i edited and saved image fields and we will correct missing images.
Hopeffuly this site had only around 50 elements ...
