Title: Accessibility issues Last modified: June 21, 2023 --- # Accessibility issues * Resolved [Tyler Hawaii](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hawaii-information-consortium/) * (@hawaii-information-consortium) * [2 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/accessibility-issues-33/) * This slider is being used on a government website and we’ve recently learned of a large number of accessibility issues with this plugin. We are required to meet the WCAG 2.0 Level AA standard and these are the issues that need to be resolved. Is it possible to address these in a future release? * ```wp-block-code Level A 1. 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value Button without a text alternative Arrow pre/next - Span.slick-prev.slick-arrow 2. 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value Hidden element has focusable content Slider circle buttons 3. 1.3.1 Info and Relationships Role not inside the required context 4. 1.3.1 Info and Relationships Container element is empty 5. 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value Role with implied hidden content has keyboard focus 6. 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value Form field missing a label Level AA 7. 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum) Color contrast does not meet minimum requirement ARIA 8. WAI-ARIA authoring practices ARIA attribute unsupported or prohibited Other findings 8. Accessibility best practices Presentational element is exposed to assistive technologies Keyboard navigation 10. When user uses the keyboard to navigate the site, the slider doesn't have a visible focus indicator to help users understand where they are (if not navigating by mouse or by sight).
