To modify the placeholder text in your chatbot's input field, you should ensure that your changes in the
src/components/ChatInput.tsx file are correctly saved and compiled. The issue might not be with the modification itself but with how the changes are being reflected in your application. Here are a few steps you can follow to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:
- Double-check that you've saved the modifications in the ChatInput.tsx file.
- Ensure that your development server is running and reflects the latest changes. If in doubt, restart your development server.
- Clear your browser cache or try viewing your changes in an incognito window to ensure that cached files aren't causing the issue.
- If you're using the Voiceflow React Chat UI Kit, make sure you're correctly importing and using the modified component in your chat application.
Remember, customizing the chat UI requires familiarity with React and the structure of the Voiceflow React Chat UI Kit. If you've followed these steps and still face issues, reviewing the documentation or the source code for additional insights might help.
For more detailed guidance on customizing your chat experience, you can refer to the following resources:

Wow Tico. It is way easier than that and does not require use of the react-chat. Just DM me.
