Settings reference
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Label | Field title shown to the customer. |
| Placeholder | Hint text inside the input. |
| Character limit | Optional max length for the value. |
| Required | Customer must enter text before add to cart. |
| Pricing | Usually none — a typed text value isn’t numeric, so it can’t drive a {field:ID} formula directly. See Pricing docs. |
| Conditional logic | Commonly shown after a checkbox like “Add engraving”. |
