If I add a setting using add_settings_field()
, it doesn't create a <label>
around the title so that it can be clicked to focus on the field. Some of the core settings do this, but they just add it in the raw HTML rather than using the settings API. Is there any way to add labels with the settings API?

You need to pass last parameter $args
, if you want add_settings_field
to output <label>
use `label_for' argument, see code snippet below
<?php add_settings_field( 'my-id', 'Test Filed', 'mamaduka_test_field', 'general', 'my-section', array( 'label_for' => 'my-test-field' ) ); ?>

Thanks, that worked. The Codex doesn't give any clue what the possible options are, and it's not in the function's phpdoc either. I looked through template.php and it looks like 'label_for' is the only argument. I'll update the Codex.– Ian DunnSep 1, 2011 at 14:47

@Ian you should check core for
do_settings_fields
, but unfortunately there is no full list of$args

Yeah, I did.
label_for
is the only one mentioned indo_settings_fields()
. I updated the Codex with the info.– Ian DunnSep 1, 2011 at 20:04
