Welcome to the research-tips wiki!
Yay!
How to fix a headings accessibility issue
- Go to our issues page
- select the label "Good first issue" by selecting this option from the label drop down
- Choose an issue that has something to do with headings
- Go the the page on the WI+RE website with the issue
- Run a WAVE test to confirm that the issue is still there - this will also help you find where the issue is on the page.
- Go to the code for the page
- Click "Edit"
- Change the headings so that the first heading on the page is an
<h2>and all subsequent headings are in order. They can get more specific, or stay ath2- just be sure no heading levels get skipped (i.e., don't skip from h2 to h4) - Save your changes!
- Let the site rebuild - it usually takes a minute or so for github to rebuild the site
- go to the page and re-WAVE it to make sure the issue is gone
- edit the page again to add the accessibility metadata! Here's an example:
# ACCESSIBILITY INFO
accessibility-info:
- { text: 'WAVE tested - 0 errors', date: '2020-05-22', url: 'https://wave.webaim.org/' }
See https://github.com/UCLALibrary/research-tips/blob/gh-pages/tutorial-workshop-metadata-template.md for more info on the metadata part!
- All set? close the issue!
