Description

The actual label for the inputs is clickable and selects/deselects the input, however, when hovering on the label, it doesn't activate the hover state on the input. This applies to both checkboxes and radio buttons.

It is standard browser behaviour to do this, but I've not found any other jquery solutions that do it so far. I use confirmit to create surveys and they have an inbuilt option to use images instead of standard inputs. I have created a test survey and below is the link. It might be useful to see if you can reverse engineer it...

Research direction
The issue reports that hovering on the label does not activate the hover state on the corresponding input (checkbox/radio). To fix, inspect the plugin's CSS for input hover styles (likely in `uniform.default.css`) and ensure that the label's hover state triggers the same effect. This can be achieved by using CSS adjacent sibling combinators (e.g., `label:hover + input`) or by adding a JavaScript event listener for label mouseenter/mouseleave. Check the test survey link for expected behavior.
