Replace placeholder on title ui element

Function: Replace Placeholder on Title UI Element​

This function allows you to dynamically update the text within a specific "Title" type UI element on your application page. It works by finding a designated placeholder text within the title and replacing it with new content you provide. This is incredibly useful for personalizing messages, displaying dynamic data, or updating labels based on user interactions without needing to write any code.

Input​

  • UI element (PART, type: Title): The specific Title UI element on your page where you want to perform the text replacement. This is a required input.
  • Placeholder (STRING): The exact text you want to find within the Title UI element and replace. For instance, if your title currently displays "Welcome, {{username}}!", the placeholder you would enter is \{\{username\}\}. This input is required for the replacement to occur.
  • Value (STRING): The new text that will replace the identified placeholder. For example, if the placeholder is \{\{username\}\}, you might provide Alice as the value. This input is required for the replacement to occur.

Output​

This function does not return a specific output value. Instead, it directly modifies the content of the "UI element" you provided, updating its title with the new text.
