How can we help you?

In my form (using the panel builder), I have the following field:

Forms\Components\TextInput::make('orderedBy.name')
    ->disabled()
    ->label(__('Ordered by'))
    ->hintAction(fn (Order $order) => $order->orderedBy ? Forms\Components\Actions\Action::make(__('Send mail'))
        ->icon('heroicon-s-at-symbol')
        ->url(
            "mailto:{$order->orderedBy->email}",
        ) : null,
    ),

where orderedBy is a relation defined on the model like this:

public function orderedBy(): BelongsTo
{
    return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}

However, the input field is always empty.

I've also tried to create a custom attribute like this:

public function orderedByNameField(): Attribute
{
    return Attribute::make(
        get: fn() => $this->orderedBy->name,
    );
}

then referenced it as ordered_by_name_field in the text input, but without any success.

How can I make this work?

Shoudn't it be a Select?
