Details

    Description

      Issue Summary

      aria-hidden="true" is used on informative content making it inaccessible to assistive technology.
      Element:
      1) More action sub menu

      Location:
      "Sub" menu that appears after activating the "more" action button present in the main content.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Navigate to any space within Confluence.
      2. Navigate to any page within the space that needs to be moved.
      3. Navigate to the 'More options' link & activate it.

      Actual Results

      The "aria-hidden" attribute is provided to the "More action sub menu", which becomes available on selecting the  "More" button. As a result, screen reader users cannot access the modal effectively.

      Expected Results

      Remove aria-hidden=”true” from the <div> element in the page source for the modal.

      The aria-hidden="true" attribute is used to hide the content from assistive technology users. Although it is a best practice to use the aria-hidden="true" attribute to hide irrelevant content for screen reader users, it can pose issues for screen reader users if it is not used correctly. 
      Additionally, ensure the focus does not move out of the modal in the background content unless the modal is closed.
