This post is part of the Steemit Problems - Bugs, Missing Feature & Workaround Serie!
Let me know in the comments if you meet any problems while steeming. We will try to find a solution for you!
Checklists, as defined in GitHub Markdown, work as follows:
- [ ] Mercury
- [x] Venus
- [x] Earth (Orbit/Moon)
- [x] Mars
- [ ] Jupiter
- [ ] Saturn
- [ ] Uranus
- [x ] Neptune
- [ ] Comet Haley
And should be displayed as:
Mercury
✓ Venus
✓ Earth (Orbit/Moon)
✓ Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
✓ Neptune
Comet Haley
But, instead, we just get this:
- [ ] Mercury
- [x] Venus
- [x] Earth (Orbit/Moon)
- [x] Mars
- [ ] Jupiter
- [ ] Saturn
- [ ] Uranus
- [x ] Neptune
- [ ] Comet Haley
Workaround?
- Using the UTF-8 character for the checked mark (✓)
- Using 3
 
to have a better indentation
Code:
Mercury
✓ Venus
✓ Earth (Orbit/Moon)
✓ Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
✓ Neptune
Comet Haley
It's better, but not perfect. And it's still a very tedious process...
Result:
Mercury
✓ Venus
✓ Earth (Orbit/Moon)
✓ Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
✓ Neptune
Comet Haley
