Hello,
the placeholder text that says ‘Enter your e-mail:’ of my e-mail input field stays on click and you need to manually delete it to enter your e-mail. I need it to behave like a normal placeholder text – on click to overwrite it without having to manually delete it.
Does anybody know how to do that?
Hi, probably it’s not a placeholder and you’re using a custom form (maybe provided by the theme). If you can edit the HTML, likely you’ll find the value attribute set, for example:
value=”placeholder text”
while the placeholder attribute should be used:
placeholder=”placeholder text”
if you share the URL of the page where the form is visible I can check it.
Yes, it is value = ‘Enter your E-mail’. If I change ‘value’ to ‘placeholder’ it works fine but I can’t find the code in the Newsletter plugin. I spent hours of searching and I could not find the exact file…
Hi, that is not from the newsletter plugin, we use the placeholder attribute. Where is the form placed? Is it a widget? Could you share a link?
Hi, so you’re creating a form with Elementor? Elementor forms should have the placeholder setting for fields.
<input class=”tnp-email” type=”email” name=”ne” id=”tnp-3″ value=”Enter your e-mail:” required=””>
This is the code wqhen I inspect the element with Chrome. When I change ‘value’ to placeholder in the Chrome editor it works out fine, but I need to hard code it in my plugin.
Do you have an idea how to do that?
Hi, that input field is the one used by Newsletter is not created by Elementor. Could be you have some customization in your site made by a developer?
Could you share the URL where the form is visible so I can get a look?
