Info Field

Overview

The Info field renders a styled notice block — no input, no saved value. It is purely for display purposes inside the options panel. Use it to add context between fields, explain a group of settings, warn about dependencies, or provide usage instructions. Supports plain text and basic HTML.

Notes

• The id must still be unique within the section even though the field stores no value.
• The style option controls the visual appearance of the notice block — use warning or error to draw attention to important dependencies or limitations.
• Basic HTML tags like <strong>, <em>, <a>, and <br> are supported in desc. Avoid complex markup.
• Info fields support required conditional logic — use this to show contextual notices only when a related setting is active.
