How do I format custom field checkboxes?

[Michael Hanrahan]

Hey gang, 

Trello newbie here. 

I don't know how to add items to a custom field checklist. I keep getting this: 

I've read in places that it's something to do with looking at the backs of the cards, but I can't find how to do that either. 

Please help!

Hi, this is a checkbox custom field type which is basically a boolean (true/false).  This is not a checklist.

If you are looking for checklists, please check out this article...
