Ok, thanks for looking into it.
Yes, I’m using Buddyboss, but the thing with description placement works fine for some fields, e.g. “Birthdate selector”: https://ibb.co/Br983Lh
But not for other fields as reported (Image, File, Location, etc.). I did not tested all the other field types.
Regards

Hi Brajesh, interesting.
In my comment #45605 I posted a screenshot of a field type “Birthday selector” (https://ibb.co/Br983Lh), which is provided by your plugin. Here, the description is put in second place, after the field name.

I copied the beginning html structure here:

<div class="editfield field_50 field_alter field_order_1 required-field visibility-loggedin alt field_type_birthdate">
<fieldset>
<legend>Geburtsdatum</legend>
<p class="description" tabindex="0">Lorem ipsum</p>
<div class="input-options datebox-selects">
<label for="field_50_day" class="xprofile-field-label">Day</label>
<select id="field_50_day" name="field_50_day" aria-required="true">
<option value="">----</option>
<option value="1" selected="selected">1</option>
...

The other field types act like you describe, description in 3rd place.

So, is there a chance that you update the plugin so admins can choose where the description is placed a) before or b) after the custom input field?
Maybe in the form of an admin display option (when adding/editing) the field type. Or with an “add_filter” method in functions.php.
I would highly appreciate it, because from a usability point of view it makes more sense to read the instruction first (if a description is necessary). The major social networks behave the same.

Thanks!

Hi Brajesh,
sorry to bother you with this.. I’m not good in php but I could figure out how to solve the problem with some JS, I found here:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/field-description-below-label-script-not-working/

jQuery('p.description').each(function() {
    // Clone description
    // Looking for parent
    // Looking for first label legend
    var desc = jQuery(this).clone(),
        parent = jQuery(this).parent(),
        label = parent.find('legend:first');
    // If there is a label.
    if (label.length) {
        // Putting the description after the label.
        label.after(desc);
        // Removing the original description.
        jQuery(this).remove();
    }
});

Nevertheless I would prefer an add filter solution in your plugin. Because I don’t know the negative aspects (resources) of this JS. On the other hand I understand your time preferences for this free plugin. Which I appreciate very much. Thank you.
