    I must agree, Formidable Form is one of the most well-written code in WordPress for anyone looking for a nice Contact Form with all essential features.

    1. I can Provide individual and unique error message for all fields with error.
    2. I can also provide suggestions to correct the error.
    3. The error message announced immediately when a user navigates away without filing a mandatory field.
    4. Clicking on Submit the Keyboard Focus goes to the filed which is incorrect.
    5. Landmark / ARIA Values are all properly placed and passed Screen Reader.

    Just found one functionality missing in this plugin to make it 100% Accessible Contact Us form in WordPress.

    6. When the Error message is shown, the Focus of the keyboard must immediately move to the field with error, so that user can rectify it. The error messages are not immediately read out to the screen reader users and also no focus goes to the item with an error.

    Please suggest a way to do that. Thanks again.

    I have reported a few issues before in other support tickets which were minor and can be ignored?for the time being but this issue which I reported here is a? Big Violation of Accessibility Issues.

    At least Error messages should have focus provided to it. It is necessary Better to provide focus now only in future if error messages changes focus will be still there. It’s a big violation of accessibility.

    Please let me know if this can be fixed or any idea on how to put the focus on Error messages?

    This is a?little?urgent as we may have to remove the?Formidable form if the focus issues are not fixed from our websites.

    Please help.

    Hi there,

    This has been reported to our developers and is on our radar.

    I’m afraid I cannot give a timeline on when a fix will be released, but I expect it will not be long.

    Best,
