You asked, you waited — it’s here. Now you can style placeholder text in forms just like you’d style any other element in Webflow: however you want. (No custom code required.)

Just pick the "Placeholder" state from the State dropdown about the Selector field to style:

• Typography. Change the font family, size, color, line height, and anything else your design calls for.
• Background. Change the background color, add a gradient, go crazy.
• Shadows. Add and customize drop shadows on the text.
• Opacity. From 0 to 100 (at a reasonable pace).
