Skip to main content

The main content area is nested inside another region

landmark-main-is-top-level

The main content is inside another area rather than at the page's top level.

Who this affects

Screen reader users, whose jump-to-content shortcut becomes unreliable.

Fix it in WordPress

Check that the theme does not place the main element inside a header or aside wrapper.

What the fix is, technically

Move the main element out so it is a direct part of the page body.
