Hi Sachin,
Thank you for the question.

1. BuddyBlog does not expose other user’s media to the logged user. The user’s will see only their own uploaded media. If it is showing other’s media, it is a conflict or you are logged as admin user.

Also, The default BuddyBlog comes with the option to disable editor or media uploader. You can disable the WordPress uploader from your admin forms page. We do not provide any other option for upload in the default plugin, do you will need to implement your own.

Another option is to use MediumEditor plugin for BuddyBlog Pro and use Mediumeditor instead of tinymce editor. In that case, we do not use the WordPress uploader and there is a file chooser which uses current device’s default file chooser.

Please share your (or your client’s order id ) and I will share a copy of the Medium editor plugin with you.

Thank you

Hi Sachin,
Thank you for the reply.

The Post Content editors’ “Add Media” button and the featured image selector button uses same media uploader. They are the default WordPress media uploader. I am not sure why one is triggering the system file chooser and other is not.

The current featured image implementation is bound with this uploader. We are adding the ability to use non wp media editor in our future development goals. For now, I am sorry, there is not much we can do about it.

You may consider creating a custom field with your own implementation for featured image. It is simple to create custom fields for BuddyBlog, the verbose part will be handling the upload/deletion of the image.
