Description
Hi. This module is awesome. Although it works great in nodes, I can't seem to make a checklist available in a block. Is there a simple way to accomplish this?
Any help is much appreciated.

To clarify, I tried adding the checklist directly to a block, using the input filter. The list shows up as expected, but checkboxes are disabled.
I also tried to accomplish this using the Node As Block module, which I already had in use. The result was the same.
Let me know if there's any information I can provide that would help.

Nope, as the code stands right now, it won't work in a block.
One of the challenges there is that when the filter is applied, you don't have context of where it is being applied, so it might need some special syntax. I've marked this as a "feature request" so next time when I'm working on it --- which isn't frequent enough :( --- I'll have a look and add it if possible.

Thanks for the quick response. I'm still learning, so I can't offer much help yet. I will have a look, though, and post back if I get lucky. =P Again, great module.

I've had a quick look at this and I think to get it into blocks we'd have to only allow it in a blocks created by the ajax_checklis module for that purposes as there doesn't seem to be anything like hook_block_alter.
Which is probably easier to do that generically altering blocks to contain checklists.

After some testing of different combinations, I think that it works with Quick tabs really stable. :)
