How would it be possible to change the placeholder text?

Solution

  • Looking at the documentation you’ve provided, there isn’t any built-in functionality to change the placeholder text.

    However, you can create code to customize the placeholder using javascript or jQuery.

    Here’s a sample code I tested with:

    <script>
setTimeout(function(){ document.querySelector("df-messenger").shadowRoot.querySelector("df-messenger-chat").shadowRoot.querySelector("df-messenger-user-input").shadowRoot.querySelector(".input-box-wrapper > input").placeholder="New placeholder text” }, 1000);
</script>

    I got the placeholder element by looking into the Browser Developer tools.

    Here's the sample output:
