WCAG 2.0 AA Redundant title issue
1 reply · Started by Anthony on February 28, 2019
Hi, I am having an issue trying to get a website WCAG 2.0 AA Compliant. My clients lawyers have asked us to use the WAVE Web Accessibility Tool. I have fixed most of the errors and alerts that have been found, however 2 of them are eluding me that I need to get fixed.
The following is what I need help with and are being flagged as redundant title text
<a href="#content" title="Skip to content">
Skip to content
</a> and
<img alt="Scout Boats" src="https://www.scoutboats.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/scout-logo.png" />
Do you know where in the php I can go in to modify these elements to get them under compliance?
Hi there,
So the tool doesn't like that the first element has a title? You could remove it like this:
remove_action( 'generate_before_header', 'generate_do_skip_to_content_link', 2 );
add_action( 'generate_before_header', function() {
printf( '<a class="screen-reader-text skip-link" href="#content">%s</a>',
esc_html__( 'Skip to content', 'generatepress' )
);
}, 2 );I'm not seeing a title attribute within that second element?
