I have installed the 2.2.2 version, but can not figure out how to enter the Placeholder into the default editing value for a field.
Can you please post directions or a screen shot of this being done>
Hi jjanicik,
Sorry for late response.
We are located in Serbia and our working time is from 10:00 to 17:00 CET. business days.
You have to change Editor input type to One-line edit and then insert placeholder in Predefined value like this %VAR1% and click apply. Then value for placeholder VAR1 will be shown in edit modal.

Thanks, I got it to work.
Now, is there any way to hide default placeholder fields in the edit form?
I don't want a front end user to see these fields.
Hi jjanicik,
Every input in edit modal have own generated id's that you can use for hiding those elements. You have to open Inspect element of the browser and find that id's which you can use in css rule to hide it.

One of the fields I want to hide is named "platform".
When I inspect it in the browser it's id is "table_1_platform".
When I put the following css in the setting area, the field is still showing:
.table_1_platform {
display: none;
}
Please advise.
Hi jjanicik,
Yes it is not working because classes in css rules starts with . and id's start with #.
Please use this:
#table_1_platform {
display: none;
}
Also you will probably what to hide and label to, so add this also:

Thanks.
Using the css you provided, I was able to hide the input field.
However, the label is still displayed.
Any idea of what might be going on?
FYI, there is an asteric in the label field (platform *), I guess because the field is required.
Hi jjanicik,
If your input in edit modal have id table_1_platform then label should have same value in attribute for. Can you please open Inspect element in browser and find that label and take a screensot so I can see it? Also please take a screenshot of custom css field where you insert custom css os I can see it?

Here you go.
Thanks for your help.
Hi jjanicik,
Yes we see why is not working. In custom css you insert value in for attribute with double quotes. Please remove it and use css for label that I wrote in previous post.
Best regards

Sorry.
I tried your css and it did not work.
I researched some on the web and decided to try the double quotes, which still did not work.
I forgot to remove the double quotes.
I just removed the double quotes and it the label still displays.
See attached screenshot.
Hi jjanicik,
Please provide me a temporary WP-admin login for your site where this happens, so we could log in and take a look ‘from the inside’ as that’s the most efficient way to see and resolve the issue. We do not interfere with any data or anything else except for the plugin (in case that’s a production version of the site), and of course we do not provide login data to third party. You can write credentials here just check Private Reply so nobody can see them except us.
Also point me on table id where you have this issue so I can take a look.
Kind Regards,
Isidora Markovic

Hi jjanicik,
Yes there was some rules with higher priority so we add !important on css rule for label and it is working fine. You can check on website.
