TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for Gravity Forms users who want their form field labels to appear as placeholder text inside the input fields. It solves the lack of native HTML5 placeholder support by adding it directly with a JavaScript fallback for older browsers that don't support the attribute.

  • HTML5 placeholder support
  • JavaScript fallback for old browsers
  • Copies field label as placeholder
  • Hides original field label
  • Open source on GitHub
