Tell us what you are trying to do?
Change the placeholder text colour in a Text Search field - [wpv-filter-search-box]
Is there any documentation that you are following?
I have found no CSS or documentation that works in changing the PLACEHOLDER text colour.
Is there a similar example that we can see?
hidden link - you can see the drop down has blue text. I changed this with style settings. I would like the search box to have a different colour placeholder text if possible.
What is the link to your site?
hidden link
The site is hidden, I cannot see what you refer to, but usually, the [wpv-filter-search-box] placeholder is passed as a native HTML placeholder input tag attribute and is styled as shown here:
hidden link
::placeholder { /* Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari 10.1+ */
color: red !important;
opacity: 1 !important; /* Firefox */
}
:-ms-input-placeholder { /* Internet Explorer 10-11 */
color: red !important;
}
::-ms-input-placeholder { /* Microsoft Edge */
color: red !important;
}
The style is defined by browsers, so add this CSS as early as possible in your theme.
My issue is resolved now. Thank you! Very much appreciated for the quick response...
