CAWeb Accessibility and State Template Fixes

  1. Dropdown menu did not scroll in mobile and desktop.  We have fixed the mobile piece and partially fixed the desktop scrolling.  We are continuing to work on the Desktop.
  2. Updated the default fav icon to the new state bear icon.  To set your site to the new fav icon you will have to go into the CAWeb settings for your website and select reset.
  3. Changed default test on the Search results page to “Search results for:”
  4. Resolved the font size for dropdown menus.
  5. Resolved Mobile menu alignment for the Dropdown menu.
  6. Modified CA.gov to now open in the same window.
  7. Fixed the Social Media settings for Open in new Tab.  
  8. Fixed the Customizer Color Scheme selections.
  9. Added Aria lables for Buttons.

Template 5.5 Obsolecence Plan:

Now that Template 6 has been updated to 6.3.2 we are requesting that all sites be migrated to Template 6.   We are asking for site owners with sites on Template 5.5 to migrate their site no later than 12/31/2024.  For the majority of sites it will be a very simple process.  The majority of changes are in the Header and Footer sections which are very easy to  manage under CAWeb Options/ General.
