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

Example: An option “Enter your email address” appears only if the customer selects “Yes” for “Would you like to receive exclusive emails with discounts and product updates?”



Help text: Add a short description to explain the purpose of the Email 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 Email that appears every time the customer goes to the site. It can save time for customers by providing common or expected input.

Placeholder text: Display placeholder text inside the Email 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:



Limit characters: You can set Min/Max characters that customers can input in the Email.



If your customers input less than the minimum value, it will show a notification message below. The same with maximum value.
