Change placeholder text
In this example, we show how to change the default placeholder and the placeholder for Headings by overriding the placeholders in the dictionary.

import { locales } from "@blocknote/core";

import { BlockNoteView } from "@blocknote/mantine";
import "@blocknote/mantine/style.css";
import { useCreateBlockNote } from "@blocknote/react";
export default function App() {
// We use the English, default dictionary
const locale = locales["en"];
// Creates a new editor instance.
const editor = useCreateBlockNote({
// We override the `placeholders` in our dictionary
dictionary: {
...locale,
placeholders: {
...locale.placeholders,
// We override the default placeholder
default: "This is a custom placeholder",
// We override the heading placeholder
heading: "This is a custom heading",
},
},
});
// Renders the editor instance using a React component.
return <BlockNoteView editor={editor} />;
