Hello,

I've just started using Free Toast Host, and, though clunky, it is reasonably accessible to those using screen readers.  I cannot, however, change the date / enter a date while creating an agenda.  It is impossible for me to access the calendar via the keyboard, and it appears as if you must use the calendar to select dates.  I can live with not being able to use the calendar, but not allowing for an alternate path/way to change / select a date is not good.  If the date field were not read-only, I could theoretically type a date.

There are multiple accessible calendar pickers you can use so that screen readers can use that calendar function.  Please let me know if you need help finding one of these.  Date entry via the keyboard i.e. enterig 7/5/2023 would be preferred.  I know that date format differs throughout the world, but if you displayed the correct format, we'd know how the date needed to be entered.

Please advise if I can be of assistance making accessibility related changes to the system, date selection being the number one required fix.

Thanks.

Sorry forgot to put my club number--number is 3323744 if that is at all helpful. I notice that the main meeting calendar is at least marginally accessible. Again, this could be fixed easily by allowing members to enter in dates manually.  Do you have any ideas as of yet re: fixing the issue?


 

1) this is a suggestion and has been moved to the suggestion forum

2) We have very limited programmer time and most of it is use soling existing issues

3) If there is a large enough response to needing this, it will be looked at when the calendar is reworked.
