Is it possible to customize HTML 'id' attribute in Twig when rendering a widget with {{ form_widget(form.NAME_OF_THE_FIELD) }} ?

Passing {'attr': {'id': 'SOMETHING'}} doesn't work...

Thanks for help!

Did you try: {{ form_widget(form.title, { 'id': 'my_custom_id' }) }}?

If this still doesn't work, you could also rely on form customization to handle it. But this could be overkill and may not be the best idea. Check the documentation on form theming for more info.

As I said, maybe there is better way but this is only what I can propose you for now.

Hope this helps.
