Thank you very much. I think your macro is the best among others! It is so automaticly and updated newest TwitterBoostrap style. ^_^ Awesome!

I have a question. In this macro there is this line: {{ field(class_=class_, *_kwargs) }}
I wonder where the is field() macro. I think it is not provided here. Please provide it. And can you explain me the *_kwargs what it mean and how to use it. Thank you very much.

Now I understand that I am wrong about field() macro. No need to provide that macro. But I have not understand the **kwargs.Thank you for great code!

This has been very helpful for me. Thank you very much.

I forked and added an if statement to this macro. If you're using a select field then this macro will put a placehold attribute on that select field which is invalid html. I just added an if statement to check for select fields.

Thanks.

I created a fork that renders the field properly with bootstrap 3.0.0

How do I use this macro, where do I add this code?

Can you update this to the latest bootstrap3?
