Version 4.3.2 [October 2025]

The SiteBuilder version 4.3.2 update focuses on improving accessibility, enabling users to create websites that are easier to navigate for everyone, including people with disabilities. It aligns with the latest Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. 

The update reflects SiteBuilder’s ongoing commitment to inclusivity and aims to make websites both visually appealing and accessible, with further accessibility improvements planned for future releases

Key website components improved for accessibility:

  • Headings: Ensures only the first top-level heading is an <h1> for better screen-reader compatibility and SEO.
  • Cookie Banner: Fully operable via keyboard, with improved focus and screen-reader reading order upon page load.
  • Page Landmarks: Utilises specific HTML5 tags (<header>, <footer>, <main>, <aside>) instead of generic <div>s for better screen-reader navigation and content bypassing.
  • Navigation: Uses the <nav> tag, and ensures subpages are accessible via keyboard focus (not just mouse hover).
  • Form Widget: Added aria-required for mandatory fields, role="status" for dynamic content like submission status, and ensured clear labeling.
  • Shop Widget: Fully operable with keyboard navigation only, with added aria-label attributes for links/buttons with non-textual content (icons/images) and visible focus highlighting.
  • Logo and Keyvisual: Added role="img" and aria-label attributes to provide textual descriptions for these background images.
Assist Note

Most changes affect published websites immediately; however, users may need to republish their website for some changes to take effect due to technical limitations.
