Hi,

Is it necessary to use a paid Wordpress account or is creating free Wordpress sites just as accessible with Jaws?

And any specific Wordpress book recommendations?

Thanks,
~Ann

Hi Thabo!

 

I have used WordPress, Drupal and learned some HTML.  For sure, WP is the best.  Learning some HTML is helpful too, but not critical.  Drupal seems to be more of an enterprise CMS.  WP can do it all; accessibly too.  Use its “classic editor.”  Get a book on using WP from Bookshare.

 

HTH,

Richard

 Good day friends!

 

Thank you for adding me to the mailing list. This is my first post to the group, and I am excited, I can have my inquiries head. 

 

 I have never created a website before, and I want to learn how to do it. Where can I start? Is the place accessible with jars? Some people were telling me that I should use notepad, how is that effective?

 

Thank you for all the suggestions in advance!

 

Best regards

 

 

 

Thabo

Hi Marty,

 

Have you tried changing the speech / sound scheme to see if it'll help?  Press, Insert, Alt + S, and the current scheme will be highlighted, try changing to, Classic, if it isn't already to see if it'll help.  In Word, try the, Word Classic, scheme.

Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.  Go dodgers!

Subject: JAWS is silant when there is a date in a line of text.

I am using JAWS 2019, Windows 7 and office 2007 and Windows Live Mail.  Each time that I type a date like March 22 in a word document or an email, JAWS will not read anything in that line of text where the date is.  It doesn't say anything at all.  This has been happening for a while, it even happened with JAWS 18.  Has anyone else experienced this?

Huh, I am using Outlook 2010, so I guess they dropped that keystroke option.

There is a shorter way to delete.  As you type and you hear an address you do not want, just press delete at that point, no need to hit tab or anything else.

When you get the email you want to remove by typing it in the field you need to hit enter to put it in the field.

Then you need to left arrow to it is selected or red to you and then hit deleate.

Hi Adrian, Thom and all,

Thanks to all for your fast responses. So, since it works for yyou, I tried with different screen readers, in case it could be a problem with my jaws configuration.

Neither NVDA, nor the windows 10 narrator could solve my problem. Here is an illustration of what I am trying to do:

1. I create a new mail by pressing <ctrl+n>.
2. In the “To:” field, I begin typing the first letters of the address I want to remove.
3. I press the down or up arrow keys one or more times until the screen reader speaks me the address I want. For Jaws or NVDA, which have braille support, I also can read the suggestion on my braille display.
4. If I press the <delete> key, the suggested address disappears from my braille display and only the letters I typed remain in the “To:” field. However, when I arrow up and down to see more suggested addresses, the one I hoped to remove by pressing <delete> while the screen reader was saying it still appears.

So, is there an outlook configuration setting to change for this to work for me like it does for you please?

Many thanks. Have a nice day. Chris D
