Best way to overwrite the name of a resource.

[SamHep0803]

Hi, I've got a model named "vACC", while this may not be the typical naming convention, it's what I've gone with. I've created a resource for this model but it has set the label as "V A C C", is there any way to disable this autocapitalization and word splitting? I understand that some of this can be set using $label and $pluralLabel but this seems a little unreliable and does not update the header from what I can see.

Thanks,
Sam.

You can override it in the resource.

public static ?string $label = 'Foo';

https://filamentphp.com/docs/2.x/admin/resources/getting-started#model-labels

Edit: I just saw you mentioned $label already, I'm not sure how else you can do it. You could add a method on the base resource that dynamically sets the label. I would just stick to the default naming conventions though.

If you had read the entirety of my original message, I said that whilst $label did fix some things, it does not completely replace everything, the breadcrumbs and title still stay the same as you can see in the screenshot attached.

Is there really no way to overwrite the title and breadcrumb though? That seems a little off, in my opinion, the only reason I wanted to use the acronym is that the entire string would be "Virtual Area Control Center" which is just too long.

What about $navigationLabel, but it will change the navigation name, not the name on the breadcrumb or the title

protected static ?string $navigationLabel = 'foo';

Edit: you can use $breadcrumb also to change the title:

protected static ?string $breadcrumb = 'foo';

Thanks for this, this when I pair this with $modelLabel and $pluralModelLabel it helps slightly but it's the title and the breadcrumb that still needs fixing.

What about $breadcrumb property?

[SamHep0803]

Ahhhhhhh, this will fix it, thanks!

Glade it got fixed! You are very welcome @SamHep0803 :)

Ok using a mix of $modeLabel, $pluralModelLabel, $breadcrumb, $navigationLabel, and manually setting the $title of pages, I have managed to update everything to their intended values. I do think that there should be some kind of way to disable this autocapitalization for specific resources, however. Thank you @ousid and @hazj for all your help :)

Use $modelLabel instead of $label

public static function getModelLabel()
{
 return '...';
}

thank you for reply, i can managed with comment above using :
public static ?string $pluralModelLabel = 'Database 2022';

just add the following at the top of your resource class to get rid of the extra "s" character:

protected static ?string $pluralLabel = 'yourName';
