WCAG 2.0

Hi Larry,

According to this checker it is compliant: https://achecker.ca/checker/index.php (but we do not have any official documentation stating that as a fact).

I believe it largely depends on how a user sets the menu up. There is nothing stopping the user, for example, setting a light grey font color on white background, which would fail contrast guidelines. So whilst (as far as I know), there is no code that is non-compliant, it is possible for a user to make decisions that are not within the guidelines.

Hi,

We used Max Mega Menu with our WCAG 2.0 WordPress themes. We’ve added some adjustments to make it work correctly for keyboard navigation. Nothing more needed to be improved for WCAG compliance.
Here you may take a look results for several examples:

Hi PixelEmu,

Thanks for the response.

What changes did you make to the keyboard nav? It looks like it’s working the same as it does on megamenu.com.

I can see you’ve added your own CSS to your theme to change MMM’s default behaviour, which is great, but in some cases it’s going to break peoples menus unless they configure it identically to how you’ve set up your demo.

Could you get in touch through https://www.megamenu.com/support/ to discuss? You can use “WPSupport” as the licence key.

I think that’s what I’m running into (menu behaviors responding differently) If I use the demo design the menu functions as expected https://peschooltheme.wpengine.com/ but on this site https://hcpswebdev.staging.wpengine.com/ I had to get MMM support to get the menu to center the text by adding this CSS

#pe-main-menu #mega-menu-wrap-main-menu #mega-menu-main-menu > li.mega-menu-item > a.mega-menu-link{
line-height:2.5;
font-weight:500;
}

Not a horrible problem but I’m contemplating my next design move as I want purchase MMM to leverage MMM the premium features (I’m committed to the School Theme along with MMM) but don’t want to labor over custom CSS edits, one of which, (not related to MMM) is not working but I created a PIXELEMU support ticket today.

Overall the WCAG 2.0 question was satisfactorily answered. Thanks

@megamenu sure we will contact you soon with details. The issue was related to the mobile button (open/close) using tab from the keyboard.
I will talk to the theme coder to prepare info for you and sent you.
