As I have looked around on the Wix Velo forum regarding this topic, I realized that this feature has been requested by many Wix users and is currently in development. Meanwhile, there is a workaround that may allow you to upload multiple images while waiting for the feature release.
There are a few big steps in this solution:
- Write Frontend code for the custom element for multiple uploads
- Connect the Frontend code to the custom element in the Editor
- Create an API to trigger the upload process and implement the upload process itself (especially how to pass a big file (> 300 KB) from Front-end code to Back-end code so the Back-end can upload that file to Media Manager)
- Use the API on the Custom Element
Before you continue reading:
- Turn on Dev Mode, you will see 3 sections in the file panel on the left: Public, Backend, and Packages.
Don’t talk about your projects, tell your stories instead.
I read this article a few days ago and wished that I could tell myself of more than a year ago what I am about to tell right now. Back then, I was hopelessly applying for jobs and got a few interviews. However, I failed all because of one mistake: I was not able to talk about my projects.
I brought this up because I have been helping a few friends who are currently seeking opportunities in tech. Many of them could not elaborate on the projects listed on their resumes…
