This module allows you to set different labels for entity fields depending on the display or form mode. You can also use it within Layout Builder to customize field labels for specific contexts.
Adds an ability to change a displayed label for an entity field.
Can be used for Display Modes
(>= 8.x-1.4 version).
Can be used in layout builder
(>= 8.x-1.6 version).
For instance:
You have an entity with a few Form/Display Modes and this entity has a field which is called "Attachments". But you want this field to have different labels on each Form/Display mode. Like: "Documents", "Files", "Attach file", etc. You can do it using this module.
How to use:
- Go to the Form (or Display) Mode settings page
- Set the "Rewrite label" checkbox. An additional form element ("New label") will appear.
- Write down the new label to the "New label" input OR leave it empty for removing field label.
Attention!
Some specific fields may not be supported. But it shouldn't be hard to correct this. The module is really simple.
If the field is composed then use "||" as a separator. Example for the Date Range field: "Event Start Date||Event End Date"
