How can I change or delete the captions "First Name" and "Last Name" in forms?

Recommended Posts

This topic was originally posted here in 2013: 

I had the same issue with translating from English to French on the contact form on my bilingual site. The original custom code workarounds that were provided worked for me last year, but at some point afterwards the form reverted back to English. Squarespace help confirmed the only way to "fix" this is through custom code. Would anyone know of any new or revised code I can inject to make this work? I want "first name" to read "prénom" and "last name" to read "nom". Thank you!

Hello @tuanphan,

How can I do this? with CSS only? and only for the English form?

I have used this from Paul2009, but it didn't work.

<script>  
  if (document.querySelector("#name-yui_3_17_2_1_1559593002966_3555")) {
    document.querySelector('.field.first-name .caption .caption-text').innerText = 'First name';
    document.querySelector('.field.last-name .caption .caption-text').innerText = 'Last name'; 
  }
</script>

in the PAGE HEADER CODE INJECTION of a certain page in order to only change it there, but nothing happened. Then I went on and put it onto the global footer code injection and then it change BUT unfortunately for all pages. I would like to have it only on my English contanct form.

Do you know how I can accomplish that? I am working on stelviopartners.com

Thank you very much, cris
