Every checklist can be changed to fit your book. Open the checklist in **Launch Checklist** first.

## Add an item

1. Go to the section you want the item in.
2. Click **+ Add item** at the bottom of the section.
3. Type the item and press Enter, or click **Add**.

## Set a due date on an item

1. Hover over the item and click the calendar icon (**Set due date**).
2. Pick a date.

The date appears next to the item. It turns red if the date has passed and the item isn't done. To remove it, hover over the date and click the **x** (**Clear due date**).

## Move an item to another section

1. Hover over the item and click the arrows icon (**Move to phase**).
2. Choose the section from the **Move to…** list.

The item goes to the end of that section.

## Reorder items and sections

- Drag an item by the handle on its left to move it up or down within its section.
- Drag a section by the handle next to its name to move the whole section.

Dragging is turned off while there's text in **Search items…**. Clear the search to reorder.

## Add a section

You have two options:

- Click **Add Section** at the top of the checklist, type a name, and press Enter. This adds an empty section of your own.
- Click a card under **Add a section** on the right. Each card adds a group of ready-made tasks, such as **Planning**, **Beta Readers** or **Launch**, plus any sections you've saved yourself.

A ready-made card adds its tasks even if the checklist already has them, so check for duplicates if you click one twice.

## Rename or delete a section

Hover over the section's name:

- Click the pencil icon (**Rename section**) to rename it. Only sections you added yourself can be renamed.
- Click the trash icon (**Delete section**) to delete it and every item in it. You'll be asked to confirm, and you can undo it from the message that appears.

## Delete an item

Hover over the item and click the trash icon (**Delete item**). Items are deleted straight away, without a confirmation, so take care.
