Document Should Not Have More Than One Landmark

Issue/Question

When I run a Page Check I get one of the following Moderate Problems:

Document should not have more than one banner landmark

OR

Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark

OR

Document should not have more than one main landmark

OR

Document should have one main landmark

Environment

  • Omni CMS

Cause

Omni CMS Final Checks evaluate all code on a page and detect accessibility issues not meeting WCAG 2.0 (Level AA) standards

It detected the page contains a landmark element. Landmarks are used to designate sections of the overall page design and layout and have been included in the templates by default.  Some landmarks can be created by the WYSIWYG editor or be copied and pasted in by accident.  These should not be within the editable content area and need to be updated to another block type or removed. 

Resolution

Identify and update any landmark blocks in your editable content areas.

  1. Click  Yellow Light Bulb to check out page.
  2. Click  Edit tab.
  3. Click  Edit button on content area where landmark (banner, aside, contentinfo, or main) is located.
  4. Highlight text identified in Source Code section for page check.
  5. In the WYSIWYG toolbar, click Show Blocks button. This adds a thin border around every block in the section, labeling the corresponding block level in the top left. Landmarks will be labeled with their name.
  6. Click within the landmark block.
  7. Use Blocks dropdown to change landmark block to a Paragraph or Div. These blocks are not landmarks and are allowed in content areas.
  8. Save page.
  9. Click Publish button to run the accessibility final check again. When the issue is resolved it will no longer display in the accessibility check.
