Hi all. I’m currently building a site for a real estate client and he requested to upload 100+ images for some of his property in the collection list. I tried to use webflow multi-image filed in the cms but 25 is maximum. Is there anyway I can work around it? Thanks in advance.
If you have < 25 photos per item, you can upload them into a gallery field.
If you need more than that, you could use multiple gallery fields and some custom code to combine them, or you can have a separate CMS Collection, let’s call it “Photos”. Each would have one photo, any other data you want, like title, photographer, location, copyright, and a ref to the related owning record, e.g. “Property Listing”.
Then on e.g. your Property Listing collection page, you drop a collection list bound to Photos, and filtered to that Property Listing.
Sorry, but I don’t understand why there is this limit of 25 photos in a multi-image field. If it is possible to create several multi-image fields in one item of the CMS collection, then why not make the limit higher for one field? Why is it so necessary to torment users and force them to come up with some tricks or use code? What should I do so that the preview images from two multi-image fields are added to the response table as a single block?
Webflow is not trying to torment you- limits are an essential part of any system architecture, otherwise planning, data modeling, and performance optimization are impossible, along with budgeting and pricing.
Custom code is the easiest way to change the HTML in the page.
To work around the restriction, you can add additional multi-image fields, host the images externally and use links, or integrate a third-party gallery using code or an iframe. Another option is to use custom code to dynamically load images from a JSON object. If that’s too complex, you can split the content into multiple collection items and link them together.
