 * Hello we are working on improving our sites accessibility rating and are having
   issues with some errors created by the jobs plugin. I’m hoping that you can help
   me in determining best route to fix it.
 * The main offenders are that the search form “This form does not contain a submit
   button, which creates issues for those who cannot submit the form using the keyboard.
   Submit buttons are INPUT elements with type attribute “submit” or “image”, or
   BUTTON elements with type “submit” or omitted/invalid.”
 * And that the Location, company name and post date do not have enough contrast
   for screen readers, “This element has insufficient contrast at this conformance
   level. Expected a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1, but text in this element 
   has a contrast ratio of 2.85:1. Recommendation: change text colour to #767676.”
 * I am curious if this something that would be able to be fixed and released, as
   I don’t desire to make changes in the plugin and have them get wiped or cause
   issues when future releases are made and we update our version.
 * Please let me know what you advice.
 * Thanks,
    Tim Records

 * Hi!
 * For the Button issue, I’ve opened an enhancement request here:
 * [https://github.com/Automattic/WP-Job-Manager/issues/1409](https://github.com/Automattic/WP-Job-Manager/issues/1409)
 * Thanks for raising it! I don’t have any suggestions for fixing it, though, unless
   you’re willing to recode how the form is put together.
 * For the contrast issue, you can fix that through CSS by changing the colour of
   the element to #767676 or something else, as they mention. You can add the CSS
   directly to your theme, or by using WordPress’s Customizer.
