Making the forums more accessible to screen readers?

[InWeezyWeTrust]

Hi yall. First off. I just wanna say how much I love the site and forums. been chillin on it since it started and been mostly quiet until now. I am a huge weezy fan and been since I was a kid. I am also blind so I use screen readers on my computer and phone or ipad. NVDA and Jaws for my computer and Voice over for my phone and ipad. Screen readers read everything on the screen to blind people so we can use the computer or phone or ipad like anybody else. The reason I am sharing this is because I would like to ask if there is a way to make certain things on the forums more accessible? everything mostly works fine but when I try to post links on my replies or on a thread I'm trying to start the link doesn't show up. And I know its on my clip board. I am not sure if its the editor yall r using that wont work with my phone ipad or computers screen readers but I would love to be able to do that like everybody else as that is a big thing on here. I cant think of anything else but that right now. so great job and thanks for any considderations.

[back on my bullish*t]

have you tried clicking on the top left button on the post box when tryna paste links bruh??

[InWeezyWeTrust]

I cant use the mouse. I am blind so everything I do is by using the key board. I did press enter on the link button and nothing happened for me.

Thank you!

I will look into making the forum more accessible for sure, thank you for bringing that to me.

I believe the copying and pasting issue could be something to do with the WYSIWYG editor on the message box. Have you tried pasting the link on both your computer and mobile device to see if one works? Or do they both not work?

Not a fix exactly. Just a work around for now. I had to type letter by letter of the link. its a pain in the ass. but it works for now.

Okay yeah I don't want that for you, I'll have a look to see what the issue is and ask on the Vbulletin forum software support forums.
