[Plugin: MailChimp Widget] Text in input field

Hi djzero23,

Thanks for trying out the plugin. The way to do this is by using some fairly simple Javascript, although the particulars will depend on where/how you’re deploying it.

Using jQuery (which is already loaded in for the widget plugin), the js would be something like this:

jQuery(function ($) {
    $('input[name="ns_widget_mailchimp_email"]').val('Email');
    $('input[name="ns_widget_mailchimp_email"]').focus(function () {
        $(this).val('');
    });
});

Where it’s best to put that JS is even more dependent upon your implementation and exact requirements.

Hope that helps!

J.

Thanks so much for your reply James. I will def try it out.
