Creating New Tasks for the Checklists

In this guide, we'll show you how to create those items using the PublishPress admin area.

Please note: these checklist tasks will not be automatically detected. Your site's authors will manually signal that they have completed the item. If you want to automatically check your content for compliance, please follow these instructions.
