[FIXED] Symfony - Add text in generated form

Issue

I'd like to do something quite simple, but I can't figure out how to manage it. I have a form:

{{ form_start(form) }}
{{ form_widget(form) }}
{{ form_end(form) }}

There are several text field in it. I'd like to "insert" some text (like <p>my Text</p>) between two text fields (let's say between name text field and description text field). Form are generated with form builder tool. I've tried something like:

$builder
    ->add('stuffName') // works well (text field 1)
    ->add('addedText', 'text', array('label' => 'my Text')) // Trouble here!
    ->add('stuffDescription'); // works well (text field 2)

But it generates a text field (and not a simple text). I don't care if the text is set in the form builder or directly in twig template... As long as it is between my two text fields. Any idea?

Thanks a lot!

Solution

Symfony forms contain only form fields. Any additional content you want has to be added by the template.

This means you'll have to output the form field-by-field. Your form, for example might look like this:

{{ form_start(form) }}
    {{ form_row(form.stuffName) }}

    <p>Your Text</p>

    {{ form_row(form.stuffDescription) }}
{{ form_end(form) }}

For more more information on how you can customize form rendering, please see the forms chapter in the Symfony documentation.
