Released Enhancements

Accessibility

  • View Pages

    • The Business Directory, News, Parks, Projects, and Properties displays were updated to force the images to be marked as decorative to improve usability by limiting the amount of information users with screen readers need to parse through to get the information they are looking for.

  • Tab Structures

    • Updated the following displays to remove a misleading aria role used by assistive technology.

      • Jobs

      • Meetings

      • Ordinances

      • Projects

      • RFPs

  • Search

    • Updated the value of the search button to match the label used so users with assistive technology hear relevant information.

Help Button Placement

We've adjusted the placement of the help button to make accessing the Logout link easier.

Adding Media to Microsites

We updated the add media process on Microsites that automatically assigns the microsite to any media (files, images, or videos) added to the page through the Primary Image/Video field or through Sections. This should save a step in the process of adding media.

New Menu Settings UI

We have enhanced the user interface by adding a page to a menu to make it easier to navigate between multiple menus. The old dropdown has been replaced with expandable sections for each menu and a search option.

  • Parent item selection: You can now see all menus you can access in an alphabetized list, with each menu collapsed so it's easier to find the menu you need.

  • Search: If you aren't able to find the menu link you are looking for, there is now a search button that makes it easier to find a link.
