Yes, tho headings for To do lists is great and can be used for great potential, 
most people really like to use checklists thanks to the constant habit createad 
by stuff like xit-mode, todoist, google Keep and other checklist and text 
focused todo modes and applications.

To me the greatest thing would come from combining the two methods, a checklist 
that has a lot of flexibility to be used like a heading and the heading that 
indicates a bigger project is in the works conveying the broader perspective 
that the checklists won't have.

But yeah my headings are working as they are supposed to now.

great.

so org headings instead of checklists work for you now?

i have lately come to the realization that checklists are not always
as suitable for me as they seem, and that what i need is [possibly
existing, possibly user] features, to be determined, for headings so
that i can use headings like checklists.

this is the opposite of frequent requests, and early version x<8
intentions, for heading-like features for checklists.

features, hmm, idk, donefornow kw, auto-numbering, export tagged items
to a checklist, idk.

the great thing is you get the full power of headings when you need
them.  [i keep wanting to say header for some reason.]

Re: Org-mode customization in emacs

I got it solved now, found the line to enable TODO headings in Org-brain to 
show properly. My initial problem was with the todo/doing/done headings not 
showing up in org-brain thanks to its implementation of org-mode on its 
mindmap, but now i have the line that allows me to see it, so i got around the 
issue.

Note that I do not fully understand the problem you are trying to solve.
It may be XY problem. Try to check other ways to achieve what you want.
Maybe post a feature request for org-brain?

Ah, understood, thank you for the reply.
Rather unfortunate that there is no way to extend it or customize it easily.

Checkboxes only support a limited TODO-like functionality. Last time we
discussed extending the available checkbox states, we decided not to go
in this direction for Org mode.
