# %slug:label% not working correctly

 * I’m having trouble using the slug label magic tag in the body of the email that
   gets sent to me. It is returning the value instead of the label.
 * I have some checkboxes that I’m trying to use this on specifically, but in my
   testing, it’s not working on any of my form fields.
 * For example, I had a form field called “State”, the user typed in “TX” and I 
   used it like this in my email body: %state:label% : %state%.
    In my email I see“
   TX : TX” instead of “State : TX”
 * For what it’s worth if I use the default {summary} tag it will print it fine 
   inside the generated summary, but when I try to use the tag manually it breaks.
 * Side note: I’ve read through the docs located here:
    [https://calderaforms.com/doc/using-magic-tags-caldera-forms/](https://calderaforms.com/doc/using-magic-tags-caldera-forms/)
   In the second paragraph under “Field Values”, it shows the example twice as “%
   slug:label% or “%plan:label% – with one leading double quote. From what I can
   tell this is also wrong, as that just prints a leading quote before where the
   slug label is supposed to be printed.
 * Any help is appreciated 🙂
