Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.To add the Field Permissions options to the Field Settings, we currently use a hook_form_alter(). We might gain benefit out of using hook_field_settings_form() instead.

robloachTurns out field_ui_field_settings_form() only calls hook_field_settings_form() for the module that creates the field. This seems like a core bug as it means modules outside the field defining module can have field settings.
