Sharing Configuration Settings Not Accessible
-
Hi there. I am totally visually impaired and using a screen reader. WHen I try to add services to the sharing settings, it does not let me because I can not use the drag and drop feature. Please tell me how to resolve this. Thanks.

I’m sorry for the trouble! They definitely are not fully accessibly, but we are working on it.
-
Would you please let me know which services you want displayed, and in which order?
We have Twitter, Facebook, Google +, Pinterest, Digg, Reddit, Tumblr, StumbleUpon, LinkedIn, Press This, Email, and Print.
Also, you can use Official Buttons, Icon + Text, or Icon Only.

All Sharing Buttons are now visible. Since there were quite a few and the Icons + Text option was displaying in a rather messy three rows on your theme, I switched it to Icon Only, which displayed everything in an orderly single row.
I am unsure if the effect of removing the text adversely affects screen readers. The alternate text should work, but would you please check?

Well the only other problem I am having is I can’t access any admin settings on the dashboard. None of the links show up like the tools, settings, or anything.
-
Hm, the Dashboard should be mostly accessible as far as getting to specific sections.
Is your screen reader up to date, and have you tried any different ones?
-
Yep, I have tried everything. It was working fine a few hours ago and just stopped showing these links.
-
Hm, that is odd. We haven’t made any changes in the last few hours.
Are you able to clear your screen reader’s cache?
-
Also, you might be at the wrong location. Try this: https://vegetarianbagpiper.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
-
That still does not work. It just shows at the top store, feedback, help, screen options, then goes into the headings mystuff and such. No top navigation anymore.
-
There actually isn’t any top navigation, everything is down the left side.
Does it eventually get back into the right content? Appearance should come after Feedbacks.

Ok, your screen reader is registering as Internet Explorer 7, which could be a problem since that’s rather out dated. Can you update that at all?
In you’re already using Internet Explorer 9, you may be using it in Compatibility Mode (which reports itself and renders everything as Internet Explorer 7). If so, can you disable compatibility mode?
-
Hmm, that is so weird. I try it in internet explorer nine and still the same thing happens.
