[Bug 1489252] Re: Authentication plugin form element is not accessible

 

Instead of having the hidden label say "Internal (authentication
plugin)", could we simply say "Internal authentication"? That should
work for the other auth plugins as well: LDAP authentication, XMLRPC
authentication... Admins can change the title of what is being
displayed, but even that should be OK, e.g. "School authentication".
It's not too descriptive, but it's not descriptive for sighted users
either until they go to the auth configuration and see what fields are
available.

Title:
  Authentication plugin form element is not accessible

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When configuring an institution (Administration -> Institutions ->
  Edit) there is an option to change the authentication methods
  available to that institution. However, there are various
  accessibility issues with the form element used to configure this:

  - The "Add" combo box has no associated label
  - The links representing existing plugins are not descriptive (instead of "Internal", for example, it would be good to have something like "Internal (authentication plugin)")
  - These links should logically be <li>'s in an <ul> rather than <label>'s in a <div>
  - The delete buttons should contain more descriptive text saying which plugin they delete
