php Jtext placeholder

Add Joomla language strings to form placeholders.

Overview

The placeholder field in ChronoForms does not directly accept PHP or JText calls.
Use a Custom PHP action to assign the JText string to form data, then reference that data variable using a CF shortcode in the placeholder field.

Hi leraora,

Have you tried using a Custom PHP action to add the text to the form data, then use a CF short code in the placeholder.
