    Hello,

    We need to make the page accessible, per the results of an accessibility scan below. I’ve poured through our word press admin site, and looked under the plugins –> editor section but I can’t seem to determine where I can make the changes below. Would you be able to point me in the right direction?

    a. CSU.H44a (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/H44.html) Form Control Labels (WCAG2)

    • i. Input element does not include a Label or Title.
    • ii. Line 70, column 450, INPUT element, NAME = “cn-s”
    • iii. Line 70, column 641, SELECT element, NAME = “cn-cat”
    • iv. Warning: Labels are the preferred method over Titles. Use
      title only when the visual design cannot accommodate the label
    • v. Line 70, column 84015, INPUT element, NAME = “cn-pg”

    b. CSU.H44b (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/H44.html) LABEL element ‘FOR’ attribute has unique ID’s a…

    • i. At least one label has an invalid FOR attribute value.
    • ii. Line 70, column 408, LABEL element

    • i. Control has no LABEL and no TITLE attribute.
    • ii. Line 70, column 450, INPUT element, NAME = “cn-s”
    • iii. Line 70, column 641, SELECT element, NAME = “cn-cat”

    I meant to add this to the original post but I do not see an edit button…

    Our web page that needs to be accessible is https://help.foundation.sdsu.edu/edirectory/

    @ Alex

    What tool did you use to do the scan? Can you share a link to it please?

    The search field definitely has a label, so I’m not sure why that would be flagged. The label is hidden with CSS but that would not matter for a screen reader.

    The category select does not have a label so something would have to be added.

    Here’s a link that shows where to find the code for the search input:
    https://github.com/Connections-Business-Directory/Connections/blob/0.8.11/includes/template/class.template-parts.php#L1284

    Here’s a link that shows where to find the code for the category drop down.
    https://github.com/Connections-Business-Directory/Connections/blob/0.8.11/includes/template/class.template-parts.php#L1711

    The file name is class.template-parts.php and can be found here:
    ../wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/template/

    If you let me know that changes you make, I’ll try to see if they can be easily integrated in Connections.

    Hope that helps!
