In this session, explore the journey of Theater Basel towards achieving digital accessibility. Join us as we delve into the process of certifying their existing website for WCAG 2.1, AA conformity.

In this session, gain insights into how the project team effectively addressed accessibility challenges by dividing them into three crucial areas: conceptual, editorial, and technical. Learn how this strategic approach allowed them to take targeted actions in each area, resulting in the certification from Access for All.

Using the case study of Theater Basel, I will demonstrate the step-by-step approach to a successful certification process. Throughout the session, I will share valuable insights and useful tools that can be applied to other projects.

Key Takeaways:

Digital accessibility can be achieved without sacrificing aesthetics.
Creating an accessible website requires perseverance and commitment.
Drupal provides support for accessibility through various modules.
Adopting an accessibility perspective makes it easier to create an inclusive online experience.

Join this session to gain practical knowledge and actionable strategies for improving digital accessibility in your own projects. Discover how Theater Basel has prioritized accessibility and learn how to leverage Drupal's capabilities to ensure equal access for all users.

TMGMT module: supporting you to keep track of translations on your multilingual website

Managing multilingual content on a website can quickly become a daunting task without the proper tools. Fortunately, the Translation Management Tool (TMGMT) module provides invaluable support to content creators by streamlining translation management, tracking translations, and facilitating third-party translation services.
The use of TMGMT has steadily increased over time, with more websites adopting it and a growing number of providers being supported. As the standard for managed translations in Drupal, we are committed to improving the module's usability.
In this presentation, we will showcase how TMGMT simplifies the management of multilingual content. We will focus on the module's ability to suggest related content for translation and prevent the submission of duplicate items to service providers, ultimately reducing costs. Additionally, we will discuss some of the remaining challenges and our plans to address them.

Side note: I was unsure if this talk would fit most for this track, or backend. I can adapt the presentation for the backend track if it'd be better for the planning management.

Security measures and accessibility don’t always play nice. Captchas, timed logins, alert pop-ups, gated content, and modals are often used for security but not all assistive technology can get their users past the barriers.

Objectives

- You will learn how some security efforts can be barriers to those who use assistive technology

- Learn how different user agents interact with digital assets

- You will walk away with accessible solutions to generally inaccessible 3rd party options

We’ll look at practical and straightforward ways to implement solutions that are open source, secure and accessible, keeping folks from abandoning your digital assets.

Introduction of CKEditor 5 to Drupal core has improved the content creation experience for website editors. The new version of rich text editor offers a more intuitive and modern interface than its predecessor. The complete rewrite of core features have made it easier to produce high-quality content with less effort.

Drupal configuration process has undergone some changes, and it is essential to understand how to configure the editor when building new and upgrading existing websites. We will kick off by configuring CKEditor 5 for Drupal 10 highlighting practical tips and gotchas.

Some functionality provided by contrib modules might not be available, so we will list top Drupal modules that are currently updated to support CKEditor 5 and how site builders can utilise them to improve the content creation. If a specific functionality is not available, site builders can contribute back by identifying the gaps and sharing the findings with the community.

The best for the last, demo of the editor's premium features enhancing functionality relevant to teams such as real-time collaboration, revision history, and comments.

Overall, the presentation will showcase the improvements brought to Drupal by CKEditor 5, the changes to configuration process, and the Drupal modules and premium features available to improve the editor's functionality and collaboration.
