SiteBuilder 2.456 released

We released SiteBuilder 2.456 on Monday 23rd November 2020. In this version:

  • We made accessibility improvements to the following page templates so that users of assistive technologies, such as screen readers, receive better information:
    • Blank
    • Bookings
    • Calendar
    • Contents list
    • Form
    • Forum
    • Glossary
    • News
    • Quiz
    • Researcher profile
    • Site map
  • We further improved accessibility, and the information provided to screen readers, through a change to the automatic cleaning process applied to HTML. The following elements are now removed if they have no content:
    • Headings, such as <h2></h2>
    • Paragraphs: <p></p>
    • Links, such as <a href="a-link"></a>. Note that page anchors of the form <a id="anchor-name"></a> are not removed.
