Web Accessibility Directive Implementation

The European Web Accessibility Directive, aimed at ensuring digital accessibility for all, will officially take effect in the Czech Republic on June 28, 2025. As part of this initiative, we are committed to implementing the required changes to ensure our platform meet these new accessibility standards WCAG 2.2.
As part of the implementation of this regulation, we will need to make necessary changes to our templates. The adjustments will also apply to addons and custom modifications. We will keep you well-informed about further steps.

Breaking Changes

Wrap product appendix (via Deferred Template Updates)

We remind the united product appendix mentioned in the previous FE news.

Unveil function parameters

As we informed you in the previous FE news in upcoming days we’re about to release replacement of the jQuery unveil function due to performance concerns. This change should improve performance metrics. Backward compatibility will be maintained, except for function parameters that are ommited. See threshold and callback here.


Improvements

We have updated the text and slogan in several templates (Step, Samba, Disco) for cases where no graphic logo is uploaded. Multi-line slogans and texts now use ellipses to preserve the visual design.


What we plan in upcoming days:
