RE: How can i hide the text (address) in the ‘From’ text box?

The original post titled “How can i hide the text (address) in the ‘From’ text box?” was marked “Resolved” so, therefore, I could not reply w/my comment.

There is a very simple way to correct this.

In your plugins directory, follow the path to the file:

gmap-embed/includes/shortcodes.php

Open “shortcodes.php” in your editor of choice and Go To Line: 149

The original code reads:
<input type=”text” id=”from_<?php echo $count; ?>” value=”<?php echo $wpgmap_map_address; ?>”/>

Replace it to read (or whatever you prefer):
<input type=”text” id=”from_<?php echo $count; ?>” placeholder=”Enter Start Address”/>

I basically removed the “value” attribute and added the “placeholder” attribute.

Hope this helps someone else!
