Not an issue really but how do I get the right xpath? about web-automation HOT 4 CLOSED

But why xPath is the only solution? CSS selectors are supported and are very powerful. See :nth-child for example.
My advice is to first try to find a selector that returns the desired element using document.querySelector(...) in the browser console.

This happens because your input is inside an iframe. There was no cucumber support for switching to an iframe, but I've just pushed it. If you get the latest changes, then this should work (I checked it):

Feature: Set an input inside an iframe

    As a user that opens a page
    I want to be able to change an input inside an iframe

    Background:
      Given I open the url "https://www.dintur.se/navigation/sok-resa/"

    Scenario: Update first input field
      When I switch to iframe "iframe"
        And I set "test 42" to the inputfield "#inpPointFrMobile"
      Then I expect that element "#inpPointFrMobile" matches the text "test 42"

See the WebdriverIO's official documentation on searching using xPath queries.

I have a hard time reaching a element on a page.
The page in question is: https://www.dintur.se/navigation/sok-resa/
It is a Wordpress page, I want to reach the first inputfield.

So far xpath has failed, id has failed so far I haven't tried nth child but... full xpath gives me shivers.
I will be using this on many WP sites so this will help me a lot.
