Nayem Issue we face in all forms, especially when using Internet explorer: - Required fields are not notified to a screen reader user. So instead of "*", the text "(required)" should appear, and should be picked up by WPML so it can be translated - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19889532/why-strings-dont-appear-in-string-translation-of-wpml - Issues are here with error recovery - as when a required field is left empty the user is bounced into them (after the Submit button is activated), but due to not having a 'fieldset' 'legend', or aria-labelledby, the screenreader user doesn't know what the error is. See references to how to use it: - aria-labbeledby: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/ARIA_Techniques/Using_the_aria-labelledby_attribute - fieldset & legend: http://webaim.org/techniques/forms/controls What would be needed is that when the forms are created that these accessibility issues are considered and applied. If you are working in that direction already, please let me know.

Hello Karel,

I have to discuss with our developer team. I will get back to you at Monday because they are now in weekend. Please keep patience.

Thank you 🙂
