Custom fields -- how to get Display Label?

[Linnane]

Hi,

Sugar version 6.3

When developing custom sugar fields I am able to get and use the Field Name : {{sugarvar key='name'}}

But how do I get and use the other field attributes? Specifically I want the "Display Label" but it would be good to know the others too.


Regards
Alan.

{{sugarvar key='label'}} will return you the raw label, but you'll want to wrap in inside a sugar_translate call to get the actual string for the current language.

 {sugar_translate label='{{sugarvar key='label'}}' module='{{$module}}'}

Hi

Thanks for your reply ... I've added your code to the DetailView.tpl of my new Custom Field but it returns this: {Array.new_button_c.label' module=''}

new_button_c is the name of my field. but not the Display Name? Also the code {{sugarvar key='label'}} returned no value.

Have you any other ideas / help?

I haven't sure, but maybe you could try 'vname' instead of 'label'.
