Question posted in 
Total newbie to web development here. I have a WordPress site where I am using a child theme of the parent theme Go. As part of my site’s customer sign up process I have a page with an html form containing a ‘select all’ survey question with several checkbox inputs. I am experiencing an issue where these checkboxes are not displaying in the form. When I inspect the page in my browser (Chrome) I can see the checkboxes are there, just not appearing.
Here is a link to the page in question:
http://www.growopps.net/test/sign-up-3/
I am using CSS in the section of my html. I recently tried putting a border around the checkbox inputs just to see if any of my CSS for the checkboxes was taking effect, but it hasn’t; Here is the page’s code:
<?php
/**
* The template for displaying all single posts
*
* @link https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/#single-post
*
* @package Go
*/
get_header();
// Start the Loop.
while ( have_posts() ) :
the_post();
get_template_part( 'partials/content', 'page' );
// If comments are open or we have at least one comment, load up the comment template.
if ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) {
comments_template();
}
endwhile;
?>

I added the following additional css on the WordPress dashboard, but the issue is still present:
input[type="radio"],
input[type="checkbox"] {
display: inline !important;
-webkit-appearance: checkbox !important;
}
I have also tried adding the custom css discussed within this question:
WordPress and woocommerce checkbox not visible
but it did not solve the issue either.
I’ll also mention that this issue seems to extend to radio buttons, which I discovered when trying to troubleshoot earlier by changing the input type.
Has anyone run into something similar before or have any ideas I can try in order to resolve this?
Thank you!

On line 462 of your stylesheet "style-shared-min.css" the opacity is set to 0 for both input[type=checkbox] and input[type-radio]. If you remove this line, they should show up.
Edited to add – In your CSS that you provided, add in the following rule for opacity:
The important tag on opacity may not be needed as long as this CSS is being loaded after the style-shared-min.css file on your site.
Please use the following code in your
<style>..</style>BlockAdding the following code in WordPress > Appearance > Customise > Custom CSS just worked fine for me.
Thanks a lot saved me a great bunch of time and frustration, thanks to all.
