Remove text from inside Search Box
4 replies · Started by Thornbury & District Museum on January 29, 2021
Sorry I'm feeling very dumb. Two years ago, with your help, I configured the Search Box on my home page to display the text 'Search only Church & Cemetery' within the search box.
Now I want to remove all the text. I can't remember how the text was added and can't find where I can change settings. I have nothing relevant in my Simple CSS coding and I can't find the PHP file which might be adding this text.
The Search Box can be seen on http://www.thornburyroots2.co.uk/
Hi there,
so it would have required a PHP Snippet like the one i provided here:

This would have been added to either a Child Themes functions.php or the Code Snippets plugin
Brilliant David - as always. I found the file and made the change. Thank you.
Glad to be of help.
