[#34230] - Accessiblemedia form field type not working
- New
- Urgent
- Build: 4.0
- # 34230
Steps to reproduce the issue
The accessiblemedia form field in not working. I tried to use it as a default module field and as a subform field.
In both instances when I save the module, the fields are deleted from the module backend view. When closing and opening the module again, the fields do not show. Saving the module again makes the field visible again with no images selected.
When I generate a frontend output, the default module field has no output, but the output from the subform field is an object. Saving the module again makes the output empty again.
The module to test the behavior can be downloaded from: Download
Expected result
Fields should output the required values.
Actual result
Fields are removed on save and there is no output.
System information (as much as possible)

Maybe it needs similar changes for that accessible media field which were made before for the "normal" media field, if there were some?
The normal media field was not initializing correctly the modal due to the fact that the JS is acting on a plain DIV (the way Boostrap modals work), if it was a custom element it wouldn't;t have that problem, ie will auto initialise on every new instance. In short, it's not this kind of problem here. From a quick look at the field I don;t see an input to save the value and I also see that the field is not using a layout (not customisable...). FWIW if someone does an audit on the current fields will be surprised on how many fields are not compatible with subforms
@dgrammatiko Thanks for the quick feedback.
@brianteeman Does it mean this here is a duplicate report to #32663 ?
no it means "here is another example of a field not working" as @dgrammatiko hinted at
I see.
