Posting here for reference: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-placeholders/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-placeholders/</a></p> <p>Thank you for posting your workaround. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-category-field-missing-placeholder-option#post-104653 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:19:35 +0000 draney 104653@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I solved it, by changing the field type and then changing it back to dropdown. That caused it to display the Plceholder option which must be a new field since I originally created the form. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-category-field-missing-placeholder-option#post-104652 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:13:45 +0000 draney 104652@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>My form includes a Post Category Field but the field edit dialog does not have the option to "Display placeholder".</p> <p>I have upgraded to WP 3.5 and Gravity Forms version 1.6.11</p> <p>If I add a NEW Post Category Field, the Placeholder option is there. Is there any way to get it into the current field? I don't want to delete the current field and lose the data associated with it. </p>
