By default, the placeholder for the title field of all post types will be same. You can change default ‘Enter Title Here’ for custom post types.
Instructions: Add the following code to the functions.php of your WordPress theme.
You’ll need to update the POST_TYPE name and default text in the code below.
function change_default_title( $title ){
$screen = get_current_screen();
if ( 'POST_TYPE' == $screen->post_type ) {
$title = 'Enter Invoice Title';
}
return $title;
}
add_filter( 'enter_title_here', 'change_default_title' );
