    How can I set a minimum number in the configurable list widget?

    Users should not be allowed to enter numbers lower than 1.

    Unfortunately, at this moment it's not possible to restrict the values that can be entered in a numeric field of a configurable list.

    For this, you would need to use a regular number field or a spinner which provide this functionality.

    Thanks for your response.

    Is it possible to change the data type in the configurable list from a spinner (data-type="input-spinner") to a number field (data-type="input-number")?

    If I understood you correctly you want to make spinner field inside of configurable list to be number field. Unfortunately that is not possible because spinner fields is already number field. You can change it to be text field but then your users will be able to add letters as well as numbers.

    Thanks BJoanna for your help.

    I'd like to keep the number formatting if possible. Ideally, the number field would be limited to positive values. With the up/down spinner arrows, users can select negative values by clicking the down arrow.

    Since setting a minimum value is not possible with the configurable list widget, is there a way to hide the up/down arrows next to the number field?

    Users could still accidentally enter negative values without the arrows but it wouldn't be so visually obvious.

    Thanks for your time.

    It is possible to hide arrows of number field inside of configurable list widget by injecting Custom CSS. Open Configurable list settings and add this code in Custom CSS:

    .stepper-btn-wrap {

    visibility : hidden;

    }

    This way your users would also not be able to enter negative values.
