Hello Magento Friends,
Today we will learn to Add Placeholder Text in Field for Checkout Page in Magento 2.
If you want to display a hint or example of the input required in a particular field, you can add placeholder text. With default Magento 2, there is no placeholder text in fields at the checkout page. To add placeholder text in the field for the checkout page in Magento 2, use the below steps.
Steps to Add Placeholder Text in Field for Checkout Page in Magento 2:
Step 1: First create di.xml file at the given below path
app/code/Vendor/Extension/etc/frontend/di.xml
Now add the code as follows
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd"> <type name="Magento\Checkout\Block\Checkout\AttributeMerger"> <pluginname="add_placeholderto_checkout" type="Vendor\Extension\Plugin\Block\Checkout\AttributeMerger" sortOrder="10"/> </type> </config>
Step 2: Now create a Plugin File at the following path
app/code/Vendor/Extension/Plugin/ Block/ Checkout/ AttributeMerger.php
Then add the following code
<?php namespace Vendor\Extension\Plugin\Block\Checkout; class AttributeMerger { public function afterMerge(\Magento\Checkout\Block\Checkout\AttributeMerger $subject,$result) { $result['firstname']['placeholder'] = __('First Name'); $result['lastname']['placeholder'] = __('Last Name'); $result['street']['children'][0]['placeholder'] = __('Line no 1'); $result['street']['children'][1]['placeholder'] = __('Line no 2'); $result['city']['placeholder'] = __('Enter City'); $result['postcode']['placeholder'] = __('Enter Zip/Postal Code'); $result['telephone']['placeholder'] = __('Enter Phone Number'); return $result; } }
At last, clear the cache and check the output on your checkout page.
