Features

With this release comes a few enhancements.

• You can disable the plugin in its entirety from the Admin > Settings area (strike through still gets processed, but the checkboxes won’t render and won’t be clickable)

• You can keep checking/unchecking boxes on the same post without having to refresh the page.

Any issues should be reported either here. I also welcome translation file PRs, or general enhancement PRs.

Usage

Create a checkbox with the following syntax:

• [] or [ ] for an unchecked box
• [x] or [X] for a checked box

Special thanks

• @lightyear for creating the initial version
• @cpradio for porting it to our new patterns and maintaining it for years!

CHANGELOG

TODO

---

If you were running this plugin prior to 2020-07-23T05:00:00Z, you may need to run rake discourse_checklist:migrate_old_syntax from your app container to convert to the new checkbox are format in Markdown.

Caveat: this rake task only changes occurrences at the beginning of a line. Other instances may need to be manually updated.
