How to Change the ✓ Color in a Bootstrap Checkbox

When working with Bootstrap, you may find yourself wanting to customize the appearance of various components, including checkboxes. One common request is changing the color of the checkmark (the ✓) that appears when the checkbox is checked. This guide will guide you through the process of modifying the checkbox tick color effectively and efficiently.

Understanding the Problem

In a standard Bootstrap checkbox, when you check an option, the checkbox displays a default white checkmark. While this might work for many designs, you may want to align it with your site's color palette.

Example Code

Let's look at an example of a checkbox setup using Bootstrap:

This code displays the checkbox, but if you want to change the ✓ color to a custom color, like a dark grey (# 212529), follow the solutions outlined below.

The Solution

Step 1: Inspect and Understand Default Styles

Bootstrap applies specific CSS rules for the checkboxes, particularly regarding how the checkmark is rendered. By inspecting the checkbox input in your browser, you'll notice a rule like this:

Step 2: Customizing the Checkbox Tick

To change the color of the checkbox tick, you'll need to override the existing background image with your own SVG. You can do this by adding a new CSS rule in your stylesheet:

In this rule:

The stroke color is set to # 212529, which is encoded as %23212529.

Step 3: Using Text Instead of SVG (Optional)

If you prefer to use a text character as your tick mark instead of the default SVG, you can adjust the CSS rule like this:

Step 4: Centering the Text (If Necessary)

If the text isn’t centered properly within the checkbox, play around with the x and y coordinates in the SVG to position it better.

Conclusion

Customizing the checkbox tick color in Bootstrap requires some knowledge of CSS and SVG. By inspecting Bootstrap's default styles, you can successfully override the established rules to match your needs. Whether you want a solid color tick or a text-based mark, these simple adjustments can enhance your website's design.

Feel free to experiment and find the style that works best for your project!
