Subsite overview pages don't have a h1 by default

e.g. https://demo.localgovdrupal.org/fostering

Perhaps the title should be marked h1?

Possible duplicate of #26?

[keelanfh]

Possibly... that refers to subsite pages, whereas this is subsite overviews. The banner mentioned there could be a solution for subsite overviews too, but I don't know enough about this functionality really.

It could just be me but none of the Subsites Overviews seems have an h1? Eg:
https://test.localgovdrupal.org/fostering
https://test.localgovdrupal.org//test-subsite-demo-all-components

Withh reference to #26 neither do the Subsites pages as far as I can see?

[andybroomfield]

The h1 is provided by the banner paragraph, I suggest some default if a banner paragraph isn't present so the page title renders.

Out of the box the banner titles aren't H1s unfortunately.
See the demo site: https://demo.localgovdrupal.org/fostering

We also have two banner types, one has a title field and the other not. Neither are required.

So two issues to solve

• when there is a primary banner, we want show the title as the H1
• when there is no primary banner then we want to render the page title as an H1

Another option would be to always have the page title as H1 , and / or add a visually-hidden class to it when there is a primary banner to visually hide it. Thoughts?

Do we mind that the page title and the h1 may be different?

Perhaps we should ask some content creators which option they would prefer? To me, it sounds like the second option outlined by @msayoung offers more certainty to those charged with creating content using this feature. It means they can decide whether or not to have a primary banner on design grounds without needing to worry about what is going to render as the H1. Just my two cents....

@andybroomfield
Can you give me a couple of examples of where you are using subsites at B&H ?

[msayoung]

Also to note that the primary banner is available on all content types on microsites. Those pages have the page title as H1 and the banner title is just text.

Whatever solution we put in place here will need to work there too.

I think this is my preferred option, and would follow the microsites paradigm best.

Examples in the wild:

Adding another consideration here that if the large text isn't marked up as a heading - which it isn't by default - then it also fails WCAG 1.3.1 which says that

Information, structure, and relationships conveyed through presentation can be programmatically determined or are available in text.

Should we move this issue to localgov_paragraphs as it affects more than just subsites now?
