    Hi,
    I’m looking for a way to get the “value title” (ex. for the select field) and the “title” (ex. for the field) from the name/placeholder of the field in the function.php file.

    I get the record object by Participants_Db::get_participant($record_id) function…

    A code example:

    
$msg = '<ul>';
foreach ($record as $name => $value) {
  if ( isset($value) && !empty($value) ) {
    $msg .= "<li>{ XXX }: { YYY }</li>";
  }
}
$msg = '</ul>';

    where:
    – XXX = field title
    – YYY = form element value title/value

    Is there a way to get the titles?

    I saw this page but in function.php not work:

    Thanks you so much for your time

    To get the value title, you need to use a field definition object so you can access the field’s settings. For example:

    $field = new PDb_Form_Field_Def( $name );
$value_title = $field->value_title( $value );
$field_title = $field->title();

    That will go inside your loop so you have access to the setting for the current field as it loops through.
