Placeholder in place of label

klermann

Where can I edit the modal and inputs, to remove the label and placeholder?

bindrid

try this:
http://live.datatables.net/hilileto/1/edit

$(document).ready( function () {
  $("#example").one("preInit.dt", function(){
    
    var filterbox = $(".dataTables_filter");
    var searchbox = fil.children();
    $(search.contents()[0]).remove();
    fil.find("input").attr("placeholder", "Search");

  });
  var table = $('#example').DataTable();
});

I think you do not understand. That's not what I meant.
I'm using the datatable editor and I want to put a label inside the fields, (placeholder), I want to assign the labels inside the inputs

I've not played with removing the labels from editor fields but you can add placeholders via the field definitions in your editor config. Check the field type docs for exact usage as I don't believe it's the same for all field types (for example, HTML5 select inputs don't allow placeholders but the Editor field type implements options to simulate one).

For example, the text field type refers to a placeholder: https://editor.datatables.net/reference/field/text

Removing the label is probably as simple as setting label: '' in the field definition.

In combination with the placeholder attribute @rduncecb mentions, you can also use CSS to hide the label elements: div.DTE_Field label { display: none; }. You might need to adjust the other CSS to account for this, depending on exactly what you want.
