Conditional Logic: Enable conditional logic if you want the Number field to show/hide only when a customer selects a specific option from another field. How to set up Conditional logics?

Example: A “Year” Number field appears only if the customer selects “Yes” for “Are you a student?”



Help text: Add a short description to explain the purpose of the Number field option, offering context or clarification when the customer enters the information. Help text can be displayed as Tooltip or Content (Below/Beside the option title, Below the option).



Here is an example of the Help text as Tooltips looks like in your storefront:


Default value: Pre-fill text inside the Number field that appears every time the customer goes to the site. It can save time for customers by providing common or expected input.


Example: You want the option “Number of additional gift boxes” will display automatically the number 2 in the field when customers go to the product page.



How it looks like in your storefront:



Placeholder text: Display placeholder text inside the Number field as a faded, lighter color. This text disappears when the customer starts typing and is often used to give customers a clear example of what should be filled in the field.



Here is an example of how it looks like in your storefront:
