Is there a button to reset all check boxes in a task list?

Robert Liberti

I set up a tasklist with checkboxes that I would like to re-use.

It is inconvenient to have to uncheck each one - one at a time - when I want to reuse my page. Is there a way I can make a button to reset all checkboxes?

Hi Robert,

I'm afraid this is currently not possible, but I've created a feature request for this at https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-37184. Please feel free to watch it to track its progress, as well as commenting and voting for it.

Regards,

Sorry to necro this question but I have been looking for a solution to this for a while and have given up and writen a user macro to provide this functionality.

The code is available here

Diego Balbi

Hi Lee! How can I get your javascript user macro enabled in my Confluence wiki page?

I appreciate your help.

Thank you a lot!

You need to be a confluence admin.
Then you can define new user macros at Admin > Configuration > User Macros.
That is where you can paste the code provided.

Once that's saved, as a user:

You add the user macro on the page. It renders a button you can click on.

Please visit https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-questions/Checklist-check-uncheck-all/qaq-p/597706#U1021297 to see if my proposed solution would work for you.

This is what worked best for me and my needs based on @Lee Cannon 's code found here :

{HTML Macro Start}

<button>onclick="untick()">Clear List</button>
<div id="taskList"> 

{HTML Macro End}

[ ] Task-1
[ ] Task-2
[ ] Task-3

{HTML Macro Start}

</div>
<script type="text/javascript"> 

function untick() {

  var list = document.getElementById('taskList'); 
  var base_url = window.location.protocol + "//" + window.location.host 
  var token = document.getElementById("atlassian-token").getAttribute("content") 
  var tasklist_id = list.getElementsByClassName("inline-task-list")[0].dataset.inlineTasksContentId; 
  var boxes = list.getElementsByClassName("checked"); 
  var number_of_boxes = boxes.length; 
  var completed_boxes = 0; 

  for (i = number_of_boxes-1; i >= 0; i--) { 
    var task_id = boxes[i].dataset.inlineTaskId; 
    var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); 
    var url = base_url + "/rest/inlinetasks/1/task/" + tasklist_id + "/" + task_id + "/" xhttp.open("POST", url, true); 
    xhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/json"); 
    xhttp.send('{"trigger": "VIEW_PAGE", "status": "UNCHECKED"}'); 
    boxes[i].className = ""; 
  } 
} 

</script>

{HTML Macro End}

- I ignored the request's response because I don't really care if it fails in my case (it never did.)

- I added a <div id="x"></div> around the tasks to limit my search range and avoid modifying other tasks.

- I removed the location.reload() to avoid reload blink and replaced it with a className = "" to remove the "checked" class.

Hope this helps!
