If a checkbox does not change colour when clicked or you cannot submit an answer, this usually indicates a technical issue or missing required input. 

Steps to try:

1. Check required questions

  • Make sure all required questions on the page have options selected.
  • Look for red asterisks (*) or error messages at the top/bottom of the page indicating missing fields. 
2. Click checkbox and label
  • Click directly on the checkbox and on the answer text/label next to it.
  • On some devices/layouts, clicking the label works better than the small checkbox area. 
3. Refresh the page
  • Save longer written answers in a separate document to avoid losing text.
  • Refresh the activity page and try again. Sometimes a temporary loading issue prevents visual changes or button activation. 
4. Switch browser or device
  • Use a different browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari).
  • If on mobile, try desktop/laptop, or vice versa. Outdated browsers or certain device combinations can cause display/interaction issues. 
5. Disable ad blockers or script/privacy extensions
  • Some extensions interfere with checkboxes and submit buttons.
  • Temporarily disable ad blockers or script/privacy tools for the community site and reload the page.
