Steemit Problems - Checklists

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 &nbsp 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
