Improvements

1. Change the subscribe form data-members-form attribute from subscribe to signup. This change will make the Welcome page — which you can set from Settings > Membership — work if you want to redirect people to a custom page after they subscribe.

2. Added responsive support for Descript embedded videos.

3. General design improvements. I spent a lot of time working with small details to shape the design, and the theme now looks much shiny.

4. Updated Node dependencies modules

Accessibility

1. Added ‘Skip to content’ link—an accessibility enhancement for site navigation with a keyboard. When using a keyboard to navigate the website, the ‘Skip to content’ link will enable you to skip the navigation and go directly to the main content area. This is useful if people only use the keyboard or a screen reader to navigate your website.

2. Improve the heading structure of sidebar widgets.

3. Remove redundant title attribute from the home page, sidebar postcards date, and post page date.

4. Remove the redundant ALT attribute from the feature image on the post page to avoid confusion with the adjacent post title. This will only happen if there is no custom caption. If custom caption text is set, it will be used.

5. Remove the social media link’s target attribute for opening links in a new tab. Let people decide how they want to open the links.

6. Add screen readers alternative text to social icons.

7. Stop non-essential motion if a reader has requested the operating system to minimize the amount of motion it uses. Mozilla: prefers-reduced-motion

Fixs

1. The post call to action card for the membership upgrade copy. Instead of showing one message for members and paid posts, it now shows a different message if the post is for members only or for paid members only. Thanks, Bruce!

2. Add a unique page title to the membership pages — (Login, Subscribe, and Account) — instead of the website name.
