In response to this thread: Ouput [sic] the Field Instructions I made a plugin that pulls field descriptions from the database for your SAEF (when you’ve customized your SAEF, and you’re outputting the fields manually), so you don’t have to hard code the instructions in your template, or have the query module tags all throughout your form.

This is sort of a simple thing, but I like to keep PHP and the query module to a minimum on my templates, so I put the query into a plugin.

Version 1.0.0 (Dec 16 2007)

Super simple sample:

<label for="field_id_7">Your Custom Field 

 <span class="desc">{exp:saefdesc field_id="7"}</span></label>
<input type="text" name="field_id_7" id="field_id_7" value="" />
