Search placeholder override

Hi

I have purchased WoodMart this morning and am still getting to know it. I want to change the placeholder text in the search box in the header. I have read plenty of articles on this forum recommending Loco Translate. I have installed this plugin, navigated to themes->woodmart->edit template but the only references to ‘search for posts’, ‘search for pages’ etc. is related to submit buttons.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Hello,

Please use the Loco translate plugin on your site. After installing the plugin please Navigate to Loco >> Themes >> Woodmart >> Edit the translation which you are using for the site >> Click the Sync button >> Find the words and add the translation for them and save it.

Also, please Navigate to Loco >> Plugins >> Woocommerce >> Edit the translation which you are using for the site >> Click the Sync button >> Find the words and add the translation for them and save it.

Also, please Navigate to Loco >> Plugins >> Woodmart-Core >> Edit the translation which you are using for the site >> Click the Sync button >> Find the words and add the translation for them and save it.

Note:
1. Custom (recommended)
2. This is Loco’s protected folder under “wp-content/languages/loco/” which is safe from automatic updates and provides priority over the above locations.

If this folder doesn’t exist you may need to create it and ensure it has the correct permissions.

If the issue still exists then please send me the WP admin login details of your site so I will check and solve the issue for you.

Hi

Thanks for your help. I’m not sure if I’m doing something silly or wrong, or missing the point but I can’t get this to work for me. I’m trying to change the ‘search for posts’ placeholder on the search input box on the right hand side of the menu bar to say ‘Search Website’.

Thanks

Hello,

I have set up the theme translation files on the site and changed the placeholder text as well from Loco >> Themes >> Woodmart >> Edit the English Translation: https://ibb.co/sQbGpBV

The result is: https://ibb.co/mShFDnn
