Re: [orca-list] Tables and Orca/Discourse forums



Hello,


I find discourse quite good.


Tables are used when looking at lists of topic in a forum category or in the list of suggested topics and similar. Luckily these are data tables so you can see who is the original poster, how many replies there are, when the last message has been posted and similar. Of course you can use screen reader table navigation features with these data tables.


As for the topic content, individual posts are reported as HTML 5 articles, still I don't think we already have means for navigating by article so this is pure theoretical suggestion to the future.


I am reading messages line by line. The messages only contain only a few links if any and the author name is always a link so if I would like to move to the next message, I hit letter k and then continue with arrow down.


Further more discourse has j and k style keyboard shortcuts it-self. So you can switch to focus mode, navigate with j to next or with k to previous post and then switch back to browse mode and continue reading.


I do really find discourse great forum platform with some exclusive features. Accessibility is rather good as compared with other random forum / bulletin style sites.


Greetings


Peter

Try going into any topic and see if you have issues navigating around? I've found posts to be clunky at best and not sure if it's an Orca or Discourse issue or browser or all of the above? Which one is what? The espeak-NG one or..? I'm not following what you're asking

Probably you need to upgrade other packages so they fit with the new orca version. How to do that depend on the distribution and version you are using.
Which one is it?

Also, I tried her loading https://meta.discourse.org/. pree Insert+F says most of the time "node in a table" I could have once switch between cells and row but couldn't reproduce Being sighted I am not the best of testers....

Start here:

meta.discourse


Then just poke around. That's your typical Discourse layout. Nolan's been working slowly with the Discourse devs but it's very, very, very slow going


I did just try upgrading but got zero speech so had to drop back to 3.36.2 so I got speech. How would I go about resetting the default synth, or why would espeak-ng vanish from the list of synths once I upgrade to orca-master? I'm trying to figure this out. I can upgrade fine, and it works, but when I reboot, I get pico on the logon screen, then zero speech after that

I know nothing about discourse forums but I'd first upgrade orca and its dependencies, the most recent orca release release being 40.0

So I'm not sure if this is me using Orca 3.36.2 but I've been poking around Discourse forums, and am unsure if I'm missing out on anything that makes it super useable, as of right now all I can do is toggle speaking of cell or entire row with Orca+f11


So is there anything else I have to toggle to make Discourse moe user friendly in Orca's settings?
