We were using a placeholder to indicate content which should be part of
a label.
It might be better to actually use "Link address" as a label instead of
"URL". I'm using "URL" because it's used in other places in the admin
section.
Using placeholders having similar (or identical) text as already present
as a label has a few issues.
First, it's a distraction. Reading the same information twice is
useless, requires an extra effort, and might even frustrate users.
Second, if users start typing before reading the placeholder and see it
disappear, they might think they're missing relevant information,
delete what they typed, and read the placeholder. That will get them
nowhere.
Finally, we display placeholders using a text offering very low contrast
against the background, so users don't think the placeholder is an
actual value entered in the field. Using such low contrast makes the
text hard to read, particularly for users with visual impairments.
So we're removing these placeholders.
This commit only deals with placeholder texts with similar (or
identical) texts as the label text. There might be other places where we
should replace placeholder texts with labels, but that's a different
topic.
Public view for suggested actions as well as resources has been
completelly redesigned.
Private side for this feature has been adapted as well in order to meet
the requirements.
