How to fix landmark one main on Wix
Add a single `<main>` landmark element (or `role="main"`) to every page so assistive technologies can identify and navigate directly to the primary content.
Steps for Wix
- Wix generates its own HTML and does not expose direct markup editing in the classic editor. Instead, go to your Wix Editor, click the area that holds your main page content, and in the Properties panel look for 'Accessibility' settings.
- Use the Wix Accessibility Wizard (available in the editor's left toolbar under the accessibility icon) — it will flag missing landmarks and guide you through applying them.
- For custom code injection: go to Settings → Custom Code → add a `<script>` in the body-end position that finds your main content container by its known ID and sets `el.setAttribute('role','main')` — but test carefully to avoid duplicate roles.
- If using Wix Studio, open the Design panel for the main section block, switch to the HTML/Properties panel, and set the semantic element to `<main>` where available.
- Re-test with the axe DevTools extension on your published site.
What is landmark one main?
Every web page should have exactly one "main" landmark — a special HTML tag (`<main>`) or ARIA role (`role="main"`) that marks the start of the primary content on the page. Think of it like a "skip to content" anchor that is built directly into the page structure. Screen readers and other assistive technologies use landmarks to let users jump between sections (navigation, header, main content, footer) without having to listen to everything in order. The `landmark-one-main` rule specifically checks that your page has one — and only one — such marker.
Without a main landmark, people who use screen readers (blind users, users with motor disabilities who rely on keyboard or switch navigation) must tab through every link, menu item, and banner on your page before they reach any product or content — on every single page load. This is a major usability barrier that can expose your store to accessibility lawsuits under the ADA (US), AODA (Canada), EAA (EU), and similar regulations that require conformance with WCAG 2.1. Fixing it is also a WCAG 2.1 Success Criterion 1.3.6 and 2.4.1 compliance item. Additionally, Google's crawlers and structured-data systems recognise landmark regions, so clear page structure can indirectly support crawl efficiency and rich-result eligibility.
