Media File Selector Control – Unable to Select Multiple Images
I'm using the MediaFilesSelector control in a page in Xperience by Kentico and have configured MaxFilesLimit to allow multiple selections. However, the media selector UI only allows selecting one image at a time.
Is there a specific configuration or setting needed to enable multi-select functionality for media files in the selector? Or is this a known limitation in certain contexts?
Any help or guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!
Environment

I do not recommend using the Media Library because we will be deprecating it and transitioning customer projects to use the Content hub for all assets.
The combined content selector has the functionality you need as long as you are using content items in the Content hub to model your assets.
The best way to stay aware of the latest features in the product is to read the Refresh blog posts which we publish each month.
Here are some recent sections of those blog posts that cover managing assets and media in Xperience's Content hub.
