Dear support team,
I search for more than an hour, now, but I just can’t find it:

Where do I change the placeholder text for the Location/street field in on the add-listing page?
Thanks a lot,
Tom

That is part of the Google API I think, not sure whether you can translate this.
It is changed by changing the Map language at GD > design > map > Default map language.
I have asked Stiofan to have a look at your question too.

Yes Guust is right this is part of the google api, it is setting the placeholder value, you could always use some JS to reset it to something different.

Hi Guust & Stiofan,
OK, I understand, thanks.
Hmm, is it just a line of JS that I have to put somewhere (… and where you could maybe tell me what to put where ;-)), or is it a little more complicated?
Thanks 🙂

Hi,

this requires custom Javascript code and a function to enqueue it for the add listing page.

If you want, I can move this topic to the jobs section of the forum to see if there is any developer interested in working for you on this?

Let us know,

Thx

OK, thanks for the quick answer … so, I guess it’s not that bad what the API proposes and would be too much effort.
Thanks you very much, anyway. Topic resolved 🙂
Cheers,
Tom
