Hi,
I've made a custom form and added image field upload.
I need to change the text of the field, that is currently showing "No file chosen".

Not using WordPress Media Library manager. I've tried placeholder and description, but no luck. I've also tried Translate Press, but it's not locating it as a translatable text.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Actually - the input type file captions are managed by the browser you are using.

Each browser has it's own rendition of the control and as such you can't change either the text or the orientation of the control.

Please check the following article:

I see, so it was not something easy.
When I do that, the repeating field disappears too, so I'll just have to drop that idea off.
Thank you!
