I'm trying to figure out how to add placeholder text to the input boxes on the join_index.html page.
I can add the following -
ex: {input name=$question.name placeholder=$question.name}
but it outputs: $question.name = "questionname" as opposed to what I want, "Question Name"
The Label {label name=$question.name} outputs what I want correctly. So my question is, How do I get the placeholder to out put the text the same way the label does?
Thanks

I am going to assume since this was moved to "Custom Code Modifications" that the answer is it is not possible to do without making custom code modification to the core? ;)

This is how you can get profile question's label:
$label = OW::getLanguage()->text('base', 'questions_question_' . $question['name'] . '_label')
It should be done in PHP code. You should assign it to a template and use it the way you want:
{input name=$question.name placeholder=$label}
