Hi, regarding this change to the website for better accessibility for people with disabilities.

Is it enough to import the existing website into the latest version of WSX5 and then export it (upload it), or do other (manual) modifications to the existing website have to be made?

Thank you in advance for your inputs!

Incomedia has only made a few code changes to the preview version so far, but nothing that really helps people with disabilities.

Incomedia still has a lot to do if websites created with WebSite X5 are to comply with legal accessibility requirements.

WebsiteX5 will probably not be reasonably accessible until mid-year, just before the deadline.

Hello Sinisa,
the update is mainly focused on a rewriting of the code so that websites generated are now more compatible with screenreaders or similar tools and their requirements, and to allow the addition of necessary information such as Alt text on elements where previously this was not possible, but overall there will be manual changes needed to make a website fully accessible.
With the launch of version 2025.1 there will be articles and guides with additional information about this.
I remain available.

@ Daniel— Ok, thank you very much for the information!

@ Eric—Thank you! So, you're basically suggesting to wait for version 2025.1 and the Incomedia's guidelines?

@Sinisa,

You can wait, and to check if it's working fine or no.... foot-in-mouth

Here a full demo of accessibility option. This script is from our friend KolAsim.

And it's really easy to add it...
As you can see it works.

Hope this helps.

Cheers! Thanks for chipping in. I'll wait for the new version, but if this is not a problem for you, could you drop me a link to the KolAsim script?

Thanks!
