  Changing the default Magento placeholder text is not available via default Magento admin options, however there are a few ways you can implement a translation or text modification.

  1. You can use the Magento Translate Inline Tool (developer mode) to touch up text. More details about it can be found in the Magento documentation here: https://docs.magento.com/m2/ce/user_guide/system/translate-inline.html

  2. If you are using our product, the Pearl Theme, under Search Version 2, we've introduced an option for editing the placeholder text and color, so you can easily change it from the theme admin options: Admin -> WeltPixel -> Custom Header -> Search Options -> Version 2 -> Placeholder Text

  

  3. You can also check out our support article for translating Theme or module elements, in case you find it necessary for your project. https://support.weltpixel.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004735608-How-to-translate-the-Pearl-Theme-WeltPixel-module-or-Magento-2-in-another-language-
