I remember a year ago or so when I was messing with this I got it wrong because I clicked on the forum page and messaged it from there, which I think was the wrong thing to do since the forum didn't broadcast my posts. 11:25 < fikabot> 💬 In the Web UI if you navigate to the group the post field is pre-populated with the Id of the group to make it "just work" 11:26 < fikabot> 💬 But it doesn't prevent you from accidentally editing it and making it wrong 11:26 < fikabot> 💬 Huh, OK, maybe I was navigating to the contact instead. Do I want the post to be unlisted or something? Just want to be sure I get it right--last year I sent several posts that didn't go through which was a frustrating experience. 🙂 11:27 < fikabot> 💬 There is autocomplete on the address too. If you type an exclamation mark and start typing then a pop-up menu will be populated with options in the same way that it is if you type an "at" symbol and start typing is populated with user accounts 11:28 < fikabot> 💬 Interesting, does that need an addon to work? I tried @ in the various post boxes but no usernames appeared. I know groups are ! but I just wanted to see if I got an autocomplete box. 11:32 < fikabot> 💬 Not that I'm aware of. None of the addons on my server seem to point that out 11:32 < fikabot> 💬 let me check other settings 11:34 < fikabot> 💬 Maybe "forumdirectory" is the one that is doing it? 11:34 < fikabot> 💬 oh you are saying even doing "@" and start typing isn't bringing up results? 11:45 < fikabot> 💬 Right, typing an @ or ! in the post box doesn't seem to do anything. Could be that it is and my screen reader isn't finding it. 11:45 < fikabot> 💬 Possibly 11:45 < fikabot> 💬 I could fire up my Windows VM that has a screen reader and test that for you 11:45 < fikabot> 💬 Nolan: Always make your forum posts public. 11:46 < fikabot> 💬 Is that different from unlisted? 11:47 < fikabot> 💬 IpswichTriptych: You will find the answer to a HTTP 500 within the server error & access log on the web UI of Dreamhost. 11:47 < fikabot> 💬 > <@hank:myportal.social> I could fire up my Windows VM that has a screen reader and test that for you 11:47 < fikabot> 💬 11:47 < fikabot> 💬 Sure thing, no rush though. I can click through to the forum for now, assuming that worked. Just made a post to the developer forum. 11:49 < fikabot> 💬 It uses NVDA if that matters 11:50 < fikabot> 💬 Probably doesn't in this case but I do too. 11:50 < fikabot> 💬 Might be worth updating that if you haven't recently, BTW. 11:53 < fikabot> 💬 I did yep 11:54 < fikabot> 💬 OK so on initial load I wasn't getting popups at all but I think that may have been Firefox doing an update 11:54 < fikabot> 💬 after restarting after the update popups come up 11:54 < fikabot> 💬 It starts a little bit to the right and down from where you are typing and you have to hover over the entries for the screen reader to read them 11:55 < fikabot> 💬 down arrow works to select the item but the screen reader just repeats what has been typed so far not the title of the menu entry 11:56 < fikabot> 💬 I also notice some friends with multiple accounts have identical text and can only be differentiated by their icon selection 11:57 < fikabot> 💬 down arrow works to select the menu item but the screen reader just repeats what has been typed so far not the title of the menu entry 12:00 < fikabot> 💬 Ooh! Flutter now has built in screen reader support. hovering over a text field reads the whole thing. 12:00 < fikabot> 💬 cool! 12:01 < fikabot> 💬 Need to figure out alt text on images... 13:01 < fikabot> 💬 Ah, so you have to actually hover over the autocompletes. Thanks, I'll poke around in review mode and see if that unearths them. --- Log closed mar nov 15 00:00:29 2022
