CheckBox support/MarkDown in Bitbucket's Pull-Request default description Edited

[Saisurya Kattamuri]

I would like to add checkboxes in BitBucket's Pull-Request default description to have some thing like this. I would like to know if adding checkboxes in supported in current description box or to ask if its possible to add MarkDown Support for this.

Hi Saisurya, 

Unfortunately, the checkboxes will not be rendered, they'll be shown as brackets. There's an existing Feature request in our issue tracker, you can find it at https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/8586/support-task-lists-in-markdown-bb-9699. 

You can vote on it to increase its popularity.

For future reference, you can also find a list of all the supported markdown here. 

Hope that helps!

Ana

Thanks for the reply; but please do consider this feature, ticket was created 6 years ago.

Being a commercial company, implementing such a simple feature should not take a long time

This would be a really nice feature.

I'd like to ask kindly, if this feature will be implemented within this century, as we are thinking about a broader use of bitbucket in our company and this feature request is one of the step stones.

[Pankaj Jain]

This should be a feature in bitbucket. GitHub already allows it.  It makes PRs more meaningful for reviewers.

[Alicia_Tang]

This feature is so important. Should support it soon...

[Nathan_Floor]

Agreed, super useful when using PR templates

Any workarounds or shortcuts?

You can use Create Task

This was my thought also but if you want to go into detail there isnt a great deal of room. I'm trying this



though there is bit of a disconnect.
