Hidden filed bug

Hi guys

When I use a hidden field created by Yii, it include a new blank line and brake a grid layout on my View. Is it occur with you too?

How do you insert it in your view?

@Bizley I’m trying it.


<?= $form->field($model, 'name')->hiddenInput()->label('') ?>

Other bug that I noticed is the label always appears. So I need put the ->label(’’) to hide it to.

I’ve checked it and this is how it should be done:

To remove label you should use


->label(false)

Method \yii\widgets\ActiveField::hiddenInput() is provided only for completeness. Because there is no need to validate such field in most cases you should use


\yii\helpers\Html::activeHiddenInput()

yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/widgets/ActiveField.php#L366


 * @param array $options the tag options in terms of name-value pairs. These will be rendered as
 * the attributes of the resulting tag. The values will be HTML-encoded using [[Html::encode()]].
 *
 * If you set a custom `id` for the input element, you may need to adjust the [[$selectors]] accordingly.
 *
 * @return $this the field object itself.
 */
public function input($type, $options = [])
{
    $options = array_merge($this->inputOptions, $options);
    if ($this->form->validationStateOn === ActiveForm::VALIDATION_STATE_ON_INPUT) {
        $this->addErrorClassIfNeeded($options);
    }


    $this->addAriaAttributes($options);
    $this->adjustLabelFor($options);
    $this->parts['{input}'] = Html::activeInput($type, $this->model, $this->attribute, $options);


    return $this;
}
