The Accessibility Panel

In the Accessibility panel, make settings to increase the availability of the website.

Accessibility

Activate extended accessibility support

Accessibility is important for people with different types of disability. To make websites more accessible, you can enable this option. In Sitevision, this means that the system enables reminders that the user should add:

  • reminder to avoid link description
  • image description texts
  • caption

Validate with W3C when publishing

To check whether the code validates on the page created during publishing, you can enable a validation check that uses the W3C validation tool. If the page validates, a "green result" appears:

If the page does not validate, a "red result" appears: Click the View details button to go to the W3C to see the results.

A new page opens with the W3C validation results.

Result W3C

The W3C Validator used for validation checks in Sitevision is updated once per quarter to the latest available version. This ensures that the validation continuously follows current standards and rules.

Accessibility check when publishing

Check this box to always run a page accessibility test when publishing.

The accessibility test checks, among other things, header levels, if ALT and title are applied to text and images, accessible tables, that the code does not use old attributes. The accessibility test serves as the link check, and you get a result when publishing the page. If it goes well, "green results" appear:

If there are accessibility problems, "red results" appear. Click the View details link to learn more about the problems on the page. Click on the Hide details lick to get back.

Schedule accessibility check

Kryssa i denna ruta för att köra en tillgänglighetskontroll av hela webbplatsen. Ställ in när kontrollen ska köras (datum och tid) och hur ofta det ska upprepas.

Schedule control
  • Start time - Specify when the report will run for the first time. Click the calendar icon for a calendar to dropdown. Click the clock icon to select a time from a list.
  • Repeat - Here you can select whether the report should run once/daily/hourly/weekly/monthly.

Den schemalagda tillgänglighetsrapporten använder en äldre tredjepartsfunktion som inte granskar lika många riktlinjer som den tillgänglighetskontroll vi har för enskilda sidor. Det betyder att du får färre anmärkningar i den schemalagda rapporten, eftersom den till exempel inte kontrollerar landmärken.

Accessibility check recipients

Ger en samlad bild över tillgängligheten på webbplatsen. Ställ in när kontrollen ska köras och vem resultatet ska skickas till.

Skicka rapport till:

Ett mail skickas med en rapport över de sidor där den automatiska kontrollen upptäckt tillgänglighetsproblem. Här anger du vem som ska få rapporten:


  • Webmaster - the person who is set-up as Website Manager on the website.
  • Last published by - the person who last published the page
  • Editors - point out a metadata that in turn points to user items in the directory
  • Other e-mail address - any email address that is filled in.

Run test now

If you do not want a scheduled accessibility check but just a check right now, click the Start button. This creates a report immediately.

The report is in English.

This function requires you to have "Manage website settings" permission
