Description (last modified by SergeyBiryukov)

Currently, the Connection Information form output by request_filesystem_credentials() looks very sad and doesn't reflect the admin form HTML structure and style.

This is how it looks: Screen Shot 2016-07-27 at 13.41.52.png

It would be great if it can be standardised to look like WP admin settings UI, i.e. Screen Shot 2016-07-27 at 13.41.23.png

While at it, it would be great to secure the form code with escape family functions (esc_attr, esc_html and so on).

On the accessibility front, these fields should probably be changed to stop using implicit labels, but I don't see any other a11y issues from reviewing the code.

  • Focuses accessibility removed
  • Keywords ui-feedback added
  • Milestone set to Future Release

Reviewed during today's accessibility bug-scrub. Agreed this form would need some love. Not sure there are important accessibility concerns here. Removing the a11y focus and setting to Future Release.

In design triage today, we agreed that this form should keep consistency with other admin forms (Column patterns).
