CAWeb Accessibility and State Template Fixes

  1. TablePress Previous and Next links were not accessible on IOS.  This has been resolved.
  2. For accessibility you are now able to use the  Enter key (with JAWS) on a Toggle. Previously the toggle was not being expanded for JAWS users.  
  3. Modify focus on Search results to include pagination.
  4. For a post with an excerpt the excerpt will now be used when displaying in a Post List.  Previously we just truncated the beginning of the post content.  For News, courses, events and General.
  5. We have resolved an issue between the Footer template and the Events calendar.  The change now moves the footer to the bottom of the page as expected.
  6. Fixed the accessibility issue with WPForms confirmation messages.  The focus is now placed on the confirmation statement when  a form is submitted.
  7. The up arrow and down arrow keys now function correctly for the Toggle module.  The previous problem was related to the use of JAWS.
