 * Hi!
 * Can someone help me remove the ‘Email’ text above the email input box? I managed
   to put a placeholder in there (thanks to another support thread).

 * Hi there Filip2310,
 * Thanks for posting! I’m happy to help you get that form field label hidden.
 * In order to hide the label, you’ll need to make a small edit to the CSS in the`
   mailchimp_widget.php` file. Adding `visibility: hidden;` to `.mc_var_label` will
   hide the labels displaying above the form fields. I took a quick screenshot to
   show you were in the CSS this attribute needs to be added: [http://eepurl.com/5H_u9](http://eepurl.com/5H_u9)
 * Make sure to remove any spaces before the opening `<?php` tag when editing/saving
   changes to the code in the `mailchimp_widget.php` file. Certain editors will 
   add additional spaces at the beginning of the `<?php` tag which can cause issues
   after the edits are saved.
 * Let us know if there’s anything else we can assist with! Have a great day.
