Slacktivity
How do I hide “Show row weights” and “Add more items” in this webform?
Those are showing up on fields where you have “unlimited” number of values selected. Those will show up by default, so that if the user enters more than one item in that field, then they’re able to manually re-order them before submitting the form. If you change those to “limited” and then a value of “1” those items will disappear.
Reminder: Temporary Transition Pages are not permanent
Make a plan to audit and/or transition these pages to Builder pages or other content types by the upcoming deadlines, which were voted on and approved by the WDN Shared Governance Board:
Jan 5, 2026: Temporary Transition Pages permanently unpublished
WebAudit Metrics
- https://webaudit.unl.edu/groups/unl/
- Slightly revision in how scores are being reported this month.
- WATCH YOUR LINKS! With all sites live in the new system, some links may have changed. CMS sites have a built-in page (Reports → Top 'page not found' errors) that shows a list of URLs that users are visiting that result in Not Found being shown.
CMS updates
Reminder: Temporary Transition Pages will be permanently unpublished on Jan 5, 2026:
Make a plan to audit and/or move these pages into builder pages or other content types by this date so you don't lose any public content.
Currently live on sites:
- WDN 6 on Drupal: Upgrade to WDN 6 framework. (Has not yet been activated on every site)
- Most sites are now in the 6.0 Framework theme.
- How to tell if yours is: Look at the search box.
- Sites that are yet to be in 6.0 are being worked on by college/department web developers.
- Report any issues you find in Slack! (Thanks David M, Anne, Becky, Matt
Tandem Images Fixed in 6.0: Image aspect ratios (Fade and Right) didn’t fill the space in 6.0
CKEditor/Body field: Images using the “Narrow” option appeared too large.
Social Media component: Background color was not displaying on sites using Framework 6 in Layout Builder.
Person node: Teaser-centered option was not displaying the image as a circle in 6.0.
Events: Updated in CMS to work with framework 6.0.
Webform: The time element is available for use in Webforms.
WebAudit Fixes
- Added a condition to remove empty <address> tags in the Person Center content type.
- Added tabindex="0" to address the “Scrollable region must have keyboard access” error.
- Resolved a 301 redirect WebAudit notice for the “More News” button by adjusting the link to end with a /.
- “Attribute “xmlns:xlink” not allowed here.” on a div. Site editors would need to remove any deprecated x:link attribute on their SVGs to fix the issue.
- The HTML validator tool used by WebAudit is now running the latest version.
