Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Problem/Motivation:
The new label should be translatable using the core module config_translation.
Proposed Solution:
In the file field_label.schema.yml the property label_value is defined as type string, If instead of being defined as type string, this property was defined as a type label, the new label could be translated from the interface of core module config_translation.

justcaldwellGreat idea and thank you for the patch! I expect to tag a new release in the next couple days -- I'll be sure this is committed.
Setting to Needs review to remind me!

justcaldwellHi @aarnau -- I applied your locally, but I'm afraid I don't know enough about translations to fully test the change. I've enabled config_translation, language, etc., and can successfully translate the initial label value for a test field, but I cannot figure out how/where I would provide a translation for the new label value.
Can you provide any insight? Thanks!

justcaldwellCommitted and pushed. Thanks, again.
Note: As far as I can tell, you still can't easily translate the new label value until #2546212: Entity view/form mode formatter/widget settings have no translation UI lands (or apply that patch).
