 * Hi,
 * The option to be “checked by default” the checkboxes under comments is not working
   on the frontend. I am using Bootscore theme.
   Any idea how to fix it?
 * For now, I am forcing like this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       function force_checkbox_checked(){?><script type="text/javascript">document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {var checkbox = document.getElementById('comment_subscribe');if (checkbox) {checkbox.checked = true;}});</script><?php}add_action('wp_footer', 'force_checkbox_checked');
       ```

 * Hi [@rbaccaro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rbaccaro/),
   Sorry for the 
   late reply.Thanks for highlighting the issue, and sorry for the inconvenience.
   I had a first look, and It’s not clear why it’s not working, I checked also with
   the other themes, and it has the same problem.I’ll continue to work on it and
   let you know.
