Sharepoint Online Custom List Yes/No Field

Question

Morning all,&nbsp;I have a number of sharepoint lists with Yes / No fields where the default is Yes. Up until last week, when a list item was created, the field would default to Yes. Now, now of them pick up the default and instead they remain No.&nbsp; Can anyone shed any light?&nbsp;Many thanks,Kevin

Here is an example.&nbsp; This is a brand new custom list and shows the form for a new entry and the design of the field.&nbsp; You will see the field is set to default to Yes and but shows No during form entry.&nbsp;Any ideas?&nbsp;

Very strange...is this a modern list? Have you re-checked that the default value for that column is still "Yes"?

Not sure if it is modern or not.&nbsp; I inherited it to manage.&nbsp; I have gotten round it by using sharepoint designer to force the value on the field as part of the workflow.&nbsp;Kev

Can you check the configuration of the column using the list settings page and not SharePoint Designer?

Yes, did that earlier and it is showing it defaulting to Yes.&nbsp; When I create a new list item, the button shows No.
