    It is more important than ever for websites to be accessible for the visually impaired. When I test my website using the Wave Accessibility Evaluation Tool I am receiving errors for each of the 5 'rating stars' associated with the Comments section showing that they are not compliant with current accessibility standards. It says that they are 'missing form labels' which are necessary for accessibility compliance. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you!

    Contact the Recipe plugin developer for that issue.

    It's not related to the recipe plugin. It's related to the Comments that reside below the recipe plugin, which is part of the Genesis framework.

    Genesis does not have star ratings. The star rating must be from a plugin that is inserting that.

    After further review on desktop, the Star Rating is coming from the Tasty plugin. Contact them about this issue.

    Got it, thank you Anita! I just reached out to the plugin manager and they are working on a fix.
