Popups with no title

aria-dialog-name

A popup or dialog opens with nothing announcing what it is.

Who this affects

Screen reader users, who are moved into a box with no idea what it contains or why it opened.

Fix it in WordPress

Popup Maker, Elementor Popups and most newsletter plugins have a title field. Filling it usually fixes this. Do not leave the popup title blank.

What the fix is, technically

Give each dialog an accessible name with aria-label or aria-labelledby pointing at its heading.
