Keep Sections Ordered in Wix
- Open your site in the Wix Editor and navigate to the page you want to organize.
- Open the Layers panel from the left toolbar to view the full structure of the page.
- Identify all major page sections (strips, containers, page blocks). These should appear as top-level items in the Layers panel.
- Drag any out-of-place sections into the correct reading order from top to bottom:
- Hero or header content at the top,
- Main content sections in sequence,
- Footer at the bottom.
- Select each section and click Settings → Accessibility.
- Assign appropriate roles in the Landmark field:
- Header for the top header area (only once),
- Main for the primary content region (only once),
- Section for major content blocks,
- Footer for the bottom page area.
- Avoid nesting major sections inside each other. If a section contains multiple content blocks, add Containers or Boxes inside it rather than additional sections.
- Check headings inside each section:
- Each section should begin with an H2 (or appropriate heading level),
- Subcontent uses H3–H4 as needed.
- Switch to Mobile view and confirm that the section order remains correct. Reorder sections in the Layers panel if necessary, as mobile layouts sometimes shift content.
- Click Preview and scroll through the page to ensure the visual and logical order match from top to bottom.
- Publish your site and use your browser’s accessibility inspector to confirm landmarks appear once and in the correct reading sequence.
