Hi,
I’m working on some compliance problems on an older V65 template. The changes that have to happen live with Wine Direct, but I’m not getting a lot of assistance through support tickets.
I can probably hack my way to compliance but wanted to see if anyone can share a link of a website that is on a Wine Direct template since June 2019? Specifically I want to look at store pages, jump menus and pagination.
Thank you if you have a recently (within last 6 mo) launched site to share.
Hey @tsartoris,
If you’re referring to the Accessibility changes that were made, many of them were across the platform tools itself and therefore would have automatically been updated across all client sites.
Template specific changes would have mainly been made to color and distinct template elements such as a Homepage slider.
You can view some of our up to date templates at the following URLs:
Thanks Andrea. So I have a question and half of it might be answered by previewing those templates.
Your ADA compliant sites have 8 ‘alerts’ in my ADA scanning. One of them is “Javascript Jump Menu”. Can you confirm that this alert is ok and not to be concerned with? We don’t have to look into a ‘submit’ button so that a disabled visitor can utilize all options of that sorting menu by selecting choice 3 for example, without it jumping to choice 2 when the focus gets onto that field? Said differently: With that alert in place, you got a sign off on this being 100% ADA compliant right?
Is it possible to preview any ‘ada compliant’ template from you that would show the pagination links? I get ADA alerts for 'redundant links" on those, becuase it will have links to the same pages right next to each other. in this example, there’d be 4 redundant links.
<< < 1 2 3 of 3 > >>
There are at least 2 x links to page 1
There are at least 3 x links to page 3.
Etc.
That is all ok with the ADA scans?
Correct - we were certified by a third party after an extensive audit of the ecommerce platform and WineDirect templates.
It is possible that there have been new requirements made since then, but as we aren’t experts in the field we are not able to confirm if the alerts that you’re seeing need to be addressed. We do, however, have followup audits scheduled to ensure that we remain compliant and if anything arises we’ll make sure that it gets addressed.
I’ve added pagination to a template here so you can test.
Totally cool. Thanks Andrea. I didn’t mean to put you on the spot if I did. My goals have been 0 errors, 0 contrast errors, 0 alerts.
There are going to have to be some lingering alerts in a number of areas because as a client I have no access to change them. If I had access, I could fix both the jump menu and pagination links to scan 0 alerts. I was hpoing that by looking at a newer, unedited template that I know scanned ADA accessible, that I’d find new coding that I could hack into our old template.
Instead I am removing those with jquery wherever it’s reasonable to do so. (e.g. any pages with < 11 products).
No - all good! Just don’t want to give you misinformation.
