I have a bootstrap form using the following attributes:

<div class="form-group">
                            <label for="recipient-email" class="col-form-label">Email</label>
                            <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="info@traxr.net" class="form-control" id="email">
                        </div>

....

I have an additional input field, where I Want to add a https:// prefix.

Apparently, it HAS to be wrapped in an input-group div, which messes up the width of the input field as well as the error label is now placed on the same line

Is there a way just to add the prefix to the input field while still keeping all the code in a form-group container?
