The theme has this beautiful alternative checkboxes, but they don’t seem to work for me, is there something I have to install?

Thank you!!

All these theme based task icons work based on the character inside the check box.

- [ ] This is the normal checkbox
- [x] This is a checked checkbox

Normally you can replace the x with any character and it will look the same in reading/live preview modes. But themes like Cupertino make it so some character give a different look.

If you scrolled just below the picture you would have seen the legend

You’ll want to put the text on the same line for it to be recognized as a checkbox item with the correct formatting.

This _doesn't_ work.

- [?] This **does** work.

Having empty space after the - [<symbol>] doesn’t work.

A bit confused as why you are replying with this here. You were not part of the original convo; why “thanks for letting us know”? Seems like bot behavior. You’re on the watch list. :clipboard:
