Links without a name on Webflow
What this is
3 links have no text. Screen reader users hear just "link" and cannot tell where it goes; keyboard users see an empty focus box.
Who it affects
- Screen reader users
- Keyboard users
- People with cognitive disabilities
Standards
How to fix it
- Give the link visible text that describes its destination.
- For icon-only links add `aria-label="…"` or visually hidden text inside the link.
- Make sure the name says where the link goes, e.g. "Shopping cart" not "icon".
Example
Before
<a href="/cart"><svg aria-hidden="true"></svg></a>After
<a href="/cart" aria-label="TODO: describe where this link goes"><svg aria-hidden="true"></svg></a>Replace the TODO with the link destination, e.g. "Facebook page".
On Webflow
Select the link → Element Settings → add a custom attribute `aria-label` with a descriptive value, or change the visible text.
