 * We found a couple of accessibility issues when running a check on our website.
    - When there are no events for a single post page, the text “There are no upcoming
      events” appears in a <p> element which is wrapped in a <dl> element. According
      to the checker: “<dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered
      <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements”
    - The color contrast of the default blue and white on the “today” calendar item
      doesn’t pass accessibility contrast ratio (the selectors are .simcal-today
      > div and .simcal-today .simcal-day-label). The styles are inline. I was able
      to override these using specific CSS and !important.
 * Thank you for your attention to these matters as accessibility is becoming more
   of a “hot topic” as of late.

 * Hi there,
 * Thanks for reaching out to us.
 * With respect to the queries here:
    1. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I have notified the development team
       about this so that it is looked into. You can follow-up on this here: [https://github.com/Xtendify/Simple-Calendar/issues/523](https://github.com/Xtendify/Simple-Calendar/issues/523).
    2. The color used is not a fixed color. You can alter this color from your calendar
       settings “Appearance” section within your calendar settings based on the theme
       that you are using for your calendar.
 * I hope this helps.
 * Kind Regards
