Password Options

You will find various settings options for customizing the field. Located in the Input Customization Tab, these options allow you to configure essential aspects of the Password input field.

A. Element Label: This is the field title users will see when filling out the Password input field in a form. You can enter any text here to help users understand the field's purpose.

B. Label Placement: This option allows you to determine the position of the label title where the user will see it. The available options are Top, Left, Right, and Default. All of those are self-explanatory except the Default. If you select the Default option, it will represent your global label placement settings.

C. Admin Field Label: The admin field label is a field title displayed only to admin users. You can configure this option to show a different field label for your admin users when they view the form submissions.

D. Placeholder: When the input field is empty, a message is usually shown to the users so they can understand what the field expects from them. This is the equivalent of the HTML input placeholder attribute.

E. Required: Choose the appropriate option from here to determine whether the field should be empty when the user submits your form.
