Joomla 4 WCAG 2,1 is it possible?

Post by sylwekb » Wed Apr 07, 2021 1:50 pm

Hallo
Is it possible to achieve all functions? The previous version, 3.9, did not have these functionalities. Is there any documentation on how to run these functionalities?

I don't know but the Joomla 4 roadmap states:
The web is for all. We aim to ensure that the templates are accessible (Level AA of WCAG 2.1)

I am not sure what you mean by these functionalites. Is there something built in to Joomla 4 that I have missed?

A lot of effort has been going into making Joomla! [4] accessible. I use the Axe browser tool to check my own work (and I still have a lot to do). Right now, my test installation shows the Cassiopeia home page has 21 issues, 9 to do with colour contrast and 12 to do with landmarks. For comparison, the referenced WCAG page has 2 Serious issues and 15 Moderate issues.

How to enable keyboard navigation? Is there an addition to that? Can you write how to enable this functionality?

Should all accessibility errors be corrected in css styles? Will there be accessibility fixes with the next Joomla 4 updates?
