Accordion Titles Now Wrapped in Headings

Focus Behavior Fixed on Components/Snippets with IDs and the "Skip to content" Link
May 29A manual accessibility evaluation of the SDSU homepage conducted by a firm contracted by the CSU found an error in the behavior of the "Skip to content" link included on all pages in the Crimson templates. While fixing this issue, we found a related issue with all components and snippets which have an ID assigned to them, so we have fixed both issues.
Merged Link Grid Components and Added IDs
May 16The Link Grid and Link Grid - Set Columns components have been merged into a single Link Grid component. Ten components have been updated to support adding an ID to create a link target.
