Default text in text panel..

[sharonyue]

Hello guys, it is possible to add default in the text panel? Just like "Enter your topic title here"

I tried to add placeholder="I want to add somethin here" by a very stupid method， but where can I find the source file?...

maybe the language file NodeBB/public/language/en-US/ or NodeBB/public/language/en-GB/

here it is NodeBB/public/language/en-US/topic.json click

the line is "composer.title_placeholder": "Enter your topic title here...", if you change it and restart nodebb it would be working

@MJ I don't think that's the title placeholder, he wants to add a placeholder to the textarea. You want to override the highlighted line in this file:

https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-composer-default/blob/master/static/templates/composer.tpl#L120

And add a placeholder attribute with whatever you want.

Thanks, it works. Is it possible to add a line break in the placeholder? <br/> does not work
