Advanced placeholder bug?

Hi guys

I registered a few weeks ago, switching from FlutterFlow to Weweb after some recommandations, and so far I like it.

However, I encounter something that looks like a bug. I add an input in my form, and would like to use Advanced placeholder feature. When I use simple Input, Advanced placeholder is not available as setting. If I place a Masked input, then Advanced placeholder is available, but once set to On, the input shows an error “Element undefined”.

I have added on the input from the starter kit, copied one of the input from the component, and Advanced placeholder works.

Is there a step I am missing by starting with basic Input or is this a bug ? For now, I am doing ok starting with starter kit’s inputs, but generally I like starting from scratch.

Thanks

Could you kindly submit a bug ticket on support.weweb.io? You will receive any updates on this bug after submitting the ticket. Thanks

Any update on this, by any chance? I seem to have encountered the same issue: no option for Advanced Placeholder (AP) on a basic input added to a page (see right screenshot with red indicator box).

I was able to copy an existing input (with AP active) from another project though to show the comparison (see left screenshot with green indicator box).

Could anyone shed some light on why one input has AP as an option, and the other does not? Is this merely a bug or am I missing something?

Hello, I have the same observation.
Were advanced input functions like Advanced Placeholder deprecated?

When I want to create an input with Advanced Placeholder the option no longer appears, however in forms created last year where I used the Advanced Placeholder it does appear when I select an input to edit it.

I’m assuming it’s deprecated now. We might still be able to achieve the same result by animating size and positioning with a little elbow grease. :confused:
