Plain Text fields give you either a normal text input or a multi-line textarea, where plain text can be entered.
Plain Text fields have the following settings:
- Placeholder Text – The field’s placeholder text, to be displayed if the field has no value yet
- Max Length – The maximum number of characters the field can contain
- Allow line breaks – Whether or not to allow line breaks in this field
Plain Text fields will either show a normal text input or a multi-line textarea, depending on whether the “Allow line breaks” setting was checked.
Calling a Plain Text field in your templates will return the value that was entered in the field.
