Fix guides / Form fields without labels / Webflow

Add labels to form fields in Webflow

Link each Label element to its input with a matching ID.

Checked against Webflow's help docs on 2026-10-09. Menu names can change; the source links below have the latest steps.

  1. Select the form field on the canvas and give it a unique ID in the Element settings panel.
  2. Select the field's Label element (add one from the Add panel if it's missing).
  3. In the Label's Element settings, add a custom attribute named for with the same value as the field's ID.
  4. If the design must hide the label, keep the label element and hide it visually with a "visually hidden" class instead of deleting it.
  5. Publish the site.

Check it: publish your change, then run a new scan from your dashboard. The issue should drop off the list.
