The "Hint Text" in the form setup appears as placeholder text.

There's no need to meddle with the rendered form HTML to do this.

Oh nice! Thank you Sanford! I'm still in the first month of using your amazing software, so I'm still getting used to everything. Is there a way to style the Hint Text? I just want to make it a bit darker. Thank you again.

Styling the placeholder is different depending on the browser.  For browsers that implement native placeholders, follow this guide. Older browsers use the class "placeholder".
