WCAG 2.0 Level AA compliance

Hi!

I know this topic has been up a couple of years ago, but we would like to know if there are any plans/process to make Newspaper WCAG 2.0 Level AA compliance “out of the box”.

This is now a requirement for sites in some countries (like Norway from january of this year), and required by law in EU (https://siteimprove.com/en/accessibility/eu-web-accessibility-directive/).

A lot is fixed by plug-ins, but there are issues – example is the header-menu and tab-navigation and skipping.

It would be great if you have this in mind when you develop (if not already). Unfortunately we now use other themes, like Icelander, for new projects (and may need to change themes for excisting sites). That would be bad, since Newspaper is by far our favorite theme to work with.

Regards,
V

Hello!

Unfortunately, our theme has no such settings for this. Maybe you can find a plugin and test it. Our tested plugins at the moment are those: https://www.screencast.com/t/6FRx4ycDe

Thank you for understanding!
