You mean the placeholder text

Are you using the default theme?

Ah placeholder text, will probably help my googleing abit

Nope, I'm using Journal Theme 2. I asked them for support but they told me this has to be edited in OC

Oh, my store url is http://bersau.se

Well, you would have to remove those placeholder="{{ WHATEVER }}" Lines,
where you don't want a form field containing the 'title' of this field, I assume. But
this is NOT Oc System Code, it's in the Theme Files register.twig and guest.twig,
or then a little differently written in register.tpl and guest.tpl Files in older Versions OC.

HTML SOURCE:

Code: Select all

<div class="form-group required">
            <label class="control-label" for="input-payment-firstname">First Name</label>
            <input type="text" name="firstname" value="" placeholder="First Name"
                   id="input-payment-firstname" class="form-control"/>

REGISTER + GUEST FILE CODE:

Code: Select all

 <div class="form-group required">
        <label class="control-label" for="input-payment-firstname">{{ entry_firstname }}</label>
        <input type="text" name="firstname" value="" placeholder="{{ entry_firstname }}" id="input-payment-firstname" class="form-control" />
      </div>

Thanks Cam, I tried to change guest.twig in both in default and my current theme folder, but nothing changed

Couldn't find the HTML source code you provided though, is that in another file *:)?

Just placeholder images, honest

Well, I have no idea, where and HOW all this is placed and coded in Journal Themes,
I never bothered, to look into one of them, after looking at some HTML Source Code,
partly using up to 1000+ Header Lines, (empty and written one's) to present a Page.
That's too far away from my way of doing such, regardless of, how such a bunch of
Scripting and Code then looks on the front side.
We all have our limits and preferences, and I prefer Life the lighter way ...
Good Luck!
