How to output overwritten field labels in site template

[Juergen]

Hello at all

I have overwritten the label of the body field in various templates, but if I try to output it in the site template I always get the initially label name.

The output code:

<?php echo $page->fields->get('body')->label;?>

The initially label of my body field is "maintext" and this will be outputed. In my teammember template I have overwritten "maintext" with "About me" but I always get "maintext" as the label and not "About me".

Can someone point me into the right direction of outputting the overwritten label?

This gets you the label in the context of the entered template.

$templates->get("template_name")->fieldgroup->getField('body', true)->label;

You could also do this to get for the template of the current page:

$templates->get($page->template->name)->fieldgroup->getField('body', true)->label;

Thanx for the ultra fast response. Works quite well

Thank you Adrian, and thanks Juergen for asking, so I just got an answer already haha
 
By the way, when you got languages enabled it could be interesting to use

$field->getLabel()

instead. It'll always gives you the label in the current language or you can pass the desired language as parameter like e.g.

$field->getLabel($languages->get("de"))

@Ryan, maybe it could be nice to have a second parameter here like true/false to get the default label or the context label?
