HTML in Custom Field Labels

Nicolas Bottari wrote an article that made me think “Why on earth have I never tried this before?”

He explains that you can add HTML right inside the field label of custom fields. I knew you could add HTML to the Field Instructions part of a custom field, but it never occurred to me to add HTML to the Field Label itself. Brilliant!

Nicolas includes some great examples of how to decorate field labels in very useful ways, and includes some caveats to keep you out of trouble too. Great tips!
