preventing a date form element from displaying 'day', 'month', and 'year' labels?

Question

I have a D7 form with a date element on it. I want it not to display 'day', 'month', and 'year' elements. I looked at '#display_title' => FALSE but that doesn't work.

Can I disable the display in the form definition, or must I do this elsewhere?

Answer 1

I think the property you're looking for is #title_display, not #display_title. Also you wouldn't set it to FALSE but one of these:

• before
• after
• invisible
• attribute

In your case you'd want to set it to invisible:

$form['element']['#title_display'] = 'invisible';

That will render the label, so your form remains accessible, but hide it from display.
