XF 2.2 How to replace a phrase with actual text in a template?

[orex]

I would like to replace the reply_placeholder phrase directly on a template but I cant seem to make it work.

placeholder="{{ phrase('reply_placeholder') }}"

Thats the original and Im trying to replace it with something else like these

placeholder="some text here"
placeholder="{{ some text here }}"

But those didnt work.


Why not simply edit the phrase in Languages and Phrases?
There are 3 occurrences of that phrase and I only need to replace 1 (thread_reply template).

So "quick_reply_macros" will change the text in the editor on the quick reply when viewing a thread.


"thread_reply" seems to change when you to go the reply page of a thread (which isn't normally done as far as I know).

Your original edit would essentially change the stand-alone page: https://xenforo.com/community/threa...e-with-actual-text-in-a-template.204785/reply (not the quick reply)
