The root cause is the CSS grid layout used for element positioning. A fix requires rethinking how elements are positioned in the editor, likely moving to a flexible grouping approach where users can group elements and control direction and spacing. This is a significant architectural change.
Dark mode support in the editor expanded the scope of this feature. Contrast checks now need to account for banner background, text, CTA, individual character colours and backgrounds across both light and dark modes.
Closed because the potential solution is beyond the current scope of the project.

Session Requests Summary
- Localisation: Confirmed as a priority for the next iteration.
- Dark mode in banner designs: Dark mode was specifically called out as a priority that would help approval and adoption. Audience suggested using Codex design tokens to implement dark/light mode support.
- Standardised colour palette via Codex tokens: Using Codex design tokens was suggested instead of giving users full flexibility over colours.
- Images must come from Wikimedia Commons: The audience mentioned that images added to banners must be from commons and there should be validation enforced for that. There is also some confusion around getting image links from commons and how to format them. The image lookup feature (T424078) addresses this.
- Image credit on banners: Surfaced as a request. There is currently no way to add image attribution.
- Mixed feedback on how to incorporate more font options: Codex supports a wider range of fonts, so the editor could expose Codex fonts. However, one attendee suggested a fixed set may be better for accessibility and consistency. Another mentioned that some campaigns have their own specific fonts.
- A template with vertical layout in mobile view: On mobile viewports, the templates available use a horizontal layout of elements (image and text side by side), with restyling required to stack them vertically. A vertical layout was requested for mobile view templates (image above, text below) so this layout is available out of the box.
- Templates with flexible content: Audience asked about creating templates with more combinations (e.g., two images).
- Site notice: A question was raised about whether the editor could be extended to site notices. Site notices are edited as wikitext, so this is unlikely without significant work.

Just found out that the session time was changed and it will be starting at 10:15am instead of 11am!
We can start by 10:30am since it is a 45 minute session.
