I would like to know how to change the color of the search bar placeholder in the iOS SDK.

What should I write by creating help_center_article_style.css?

Thank you.

Hey Asa,

This will actually be set in your appDelegate file. You can accomplish this with the UIkit specifically the UISearchBar. I've included an example on how to accomplish below:

        UITextField.appearance(whenContainedInInstancesOf: [UISearchBar.self]).defaultTextAttributes = [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.white]
        UITextField.appearance(whenContainedInInstancesOf: [UISearchBar.self]).attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: "Search...", attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.lightGray]

Hope this helps!

Have a wonderful day!
