I just realized that the new updated Web Form Builder is created placeholders with darker texts in comparing to the previous version, I guess it updated for mobile users. I want to update all my placeholders but I was unable to do it on the existing Text Fields but the new ones. If any of you have any trick to do it please let me know and I am appreciated.

Hi Vu,
I use css override on my form to accomplish this.
These can be added to your form after export.
<style>
::-webkit-input-placeholder {
color: black;
}
:-moz-placeholder {
color: black;
}
::-moz-placeholder {
color:black red;
}
:-ms-input-placeholder {
color: black;
}
</style>

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

The code is not working. Even after I created a new Text Field with darker texts but after uploaded, it did not change to at all.
