accessibilty issues

  • Hi,

    After trying some accessibility plugins, I got the same result while scaling the font size – both menu and footer links (‘a’ tag) were not scaled.
    I found that the footer has this rule in the css:

    footer#footer a,footer#footer p {
    font-size: 11px;
    line-height: 21px;
    color: #fafafa;
    margin-bottom: 2px;
    text-align: center
    }
    which overrides any font scaling of .
    I removed the “footer#footer a”
    and everything was just fine.

    The question – is the “footer#oofter a” really necessary?

    Not fully understanding yet, but if that code is in one of the core css files then it will be really necessary. If you’ve added it into a child theme then need to understand why.

    Its my test site jts.glezer.co.il (and its RTL, not in English…)
    the css is from the theme not my child-theme.

    The reason that I’m questioning the necessity of the “footer#footer a” is because it’s already covered by “footer#footer p”.

    OK, so which of the attributes causes the problem? You can split that into 2 selectors and modify just the [a] attributes.

    I now how to fix it on my site.
    In this case I can of course fix my child theme, but I’m looking at the bigger picture – if the “a” is covered by the “p”, why do we need it?
    I’m looking for the reason that it’s there, becasue I wan to suggest removing it.
    So maybe Nikeo or one of the other developers will answer?
