Under the default Symfony layout, I can use the first argument on form_label to set the label text for my checkbox. For example, this:
{{ form_label(form.fooCheckbox, 'Foo') }}
Correctly renders as:
<label>Foo</label>
However if I use the Bootstrap layout, this same argument is ignored:
{{ form_label(form.fooCheckbox, 'Foo') }}
Renders as:
<label>*default humanized label*</label>
How can I fix this?
Just figured this out after taking another look at the Bootstrap layout file. Instead of rendering my checkboxes like this:
{{ form_widget(form.fooCheckbox) }}
{{ form_label(form.fooCheckbox, 'Foo') }}
The label argument has to move up onto the widget, like this:
{{ form_widget(form.fooCheckbox, {'label': 'Foo'}) }}
I can't spot any mention of this in the documentation - hopefully this will help someone else out.
- bootstrap_3_layout.html.twig and then in my template file I've modified form_label to {{ form_label(form.email, 'Changed label with bootstrap layout') }} and it displays Changed label with bootstrap layout just fine.form_label and form_widget there is not form-group surrounding div. <label class="control-label required" for="myform_email">Changed label with bootstrap layout</label> for the label and <input type="email" id="myform_email" name="myform[email]" required="required" class="form-control" /> for the input
