How can we update (change) the preset text in the contact form fields?
1option Hi
You can change these text via the language file of template: /language/en-GB/en-GB.tpl_ja_podcast.ini
/language/en-GB/en-GB.tpl_ja_podcast.ini
;Contact TPL_CONTACT_EMAIL_LABEL = "Mail" TPL_CONTACT_MESSAGE_LABEL = "How we can help?" TPL_CONTACT_SEND_LABEL = "Send your message" TPL_CONTACT_INFORMATION = "Have question?<br />Get in touch!" TPL_CONTACT_NAME_PLACEHOLDER = "Cameron Williamson" TPL_CONTACT_EMAIL_PLACEHOLDER = "deanna.curtis@example.com" TPL_CONTACT_MESSAGE_SUBJECT_PLACEHOLDER = "Aliqua id fugiat nostrud irure ex duis" TPL_CONTACT_ENTER_MESSAGE_PLACEHOLDER = "Please type your message here ..."
saguaros Great, those overrides all worked, only one missing in the list was the Phone #- how do we change the default form field text for the Phone field?
1option It's custom fields of com_contact.
Go to Backend >> Components >> Contacts >> Fields >> filter by Mail and edit the Phone field there.
Phone
When editing this field, go to Options tab and you can change the placeholder text there as well.
Solved. Thank you.
