Custom Text in Universal Login Not Reflected in Login Form
Last Updated:
Overview
This article will explain why setting custom text as a placeholder for username in the login form does not affect the application's login box.
- The change is made in the setting shown in the image below Branding -> Universal Login -> Advanced Options -> Custom Text -> Username placeholder
Applies To
- Universal Login
- Custom Text
- Placeholder Text
Cause
The authentication method selected under Authentication -> Authentication Profile was the Identifier First option.
When using the Identifier First option, the prompt to be used under the Branding section should be "login_id", and the placeholder should be the "emailPlaceHolder" field as shown in the screenshot below.
Solution
The solution is to change the placeholder named "emailPlaceHolder" to the desired custom text. This change can then be seen in the login box.
