    Is it possible to use the default:user_display_name if the user is logged in and use the placeholder watermark if not logged in? I was unsuccessful when simply adding both elements to my text field definition.

    [text* your-name placeholder “Example … Jane Doe” default:user_display_name]

    Yes, it’s possible. It’s not working because it’s in the wrong format. Correct format is:

    [text* your-name default:user_display_name placeholder "Example ... Jane Doe"]

    Fantastic. That worked. Thanks.

    It is not working for me.
    [text* your-fname default:user_first_name placeholder "First Name"]

    I also need to use akismet:author, so I tried other possible orders like
    [text* your-fname akismet:author placeholder default:user_first_name "First Name"]

    I tried
    [text* your-fname default:user_first_name "First Name"]
    And it used First Name as the value. Only after removing the value was I able to get the user_first_name to be used.
