| Reading order | Not clear how order is determined. Potentially partially influenced by order of elements in the sidebar, but one theme tested did not adhere to that and the nav was the last in the reading order despite being top of the sidebar order. I can't publish on the starter plan, so I can't see how my own changes influence the site, but with a well-built theme the organization helps ensure that adding new elements puts them in a reasonable place in the sidebar order. | 2 |
