Post Category Field Missing Placeholder Option

    My form includes a Post Category Field but the field edit dialog does not have the option to "Display placeholder".

    I have upgraded to WP 3.5 and Gravity Forms version 1.6.11

    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.

    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.

  3. Since Gravity Forms does not support placeholders, you must be using this plugin or some other solution. Posting here for reference: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-placeholders/

    Thank you for posting your workaround.
