Reset to default 3inspect your html and find the css rule of input, then add background to it like:
background: #fff url('select2.png') no-repeat 100% -22px;
This thread helped me - 8 years later there are slightly more options on how to do this, the one described below is what I ended up doing. This adds the placeholder value to the search bar inside of a select2 dropdown using jquery, using with bootstrap5.
$('#your-select-id').one('select2:open', function(e) {
$('input.select2-search__field').prop('placeholder', 'enter username or city');
});
