Hi,
If i understand correctly your problem, You don't have a registration form XML, but userfields rendered from database
see: YOURSITE/administrator/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=userfields
the file rendering it is : YOURSITE\components\com_virtuemart\views\user\tmpl\edit_address_userfields.php
or in cart : YOURSITE\components\com_virtuemart\views\cart\tmpl\default_cartfields.php
and use

Code Select Expand

echo $field['formcode'] to display the inputs and, currently, you cannot override this.
See d:\WEB\wamp\www\cleancut.se\administrator\components\com_virtuemart\models\userfields.php and search for formcode for more.
THe only solution i see(without hack), is to user a regex or string replace in the field you need to add the placeHolder

to get field Name
change  for eg.

Code Select Expand

foreach($this->userFieldsCart['fields'] as $field) {
to

Code Select Expand

foreach($this->userFieldsCart['fields'] as $fieldName => $field) {
then you can check by  $fieldName to know when you have to add the placeholder
I hope this help you,
