More improvements - Accessibility
#1
Google didn't like our colors, mainly the blue. We have adjusted it to our secondary blue - which, tbh, I LOVE! It really pops. I've also added aria labels to search. Got more to do for that but we are improving little by little. Smile 

Should anyone have issues with this set of improvements, please post here with screenshots. Thanks.

Oh I also had to adjust the colors for member levels so you'll probably notice that too.

The new blue looks great!  It's deeper and on the same eye-popping bright level as the purple. Smile

Love that you added aria labels to the search too.  Does that work like a beacon to alert screen readers that we are an accessibility friendly website?

It helps them to use the site. I haven't researched to see whether Google does anything in searches to note accessibility. They should if they don't.

Our home page is now 100% accessible on desktop according to google lighthouse tests. Still working on other pages and mobile will be later. I did get the footer fixed for mobile as the menu wasn't showing well. It is challenging to get the max level of accessibility on older scripts. That being said, we all look forward to something better later on.  Cool

Congrats, nice work and dedication to achieve Google's requirements for accessibility. Party   I do see your change in the footer too.  Just checked mobile and I see a huge improvement in the footer; clean!  Looking forward to the "something later on" too. Cool Nerd
