DubBot Drupal Module

See your DubBot results in your Drupal installation.

Updated over 3 months ago

Users can view a simplified version of the DubBot interface while working on pages inside Drupal. Setup is easy, and our team is ready to show off a demo of the module by request.

DubBot Module Settings

Note: The admin of your Drupal site will have to complete the module setup.

To get started, contact DubBot Support at help@dubbot.com to request an embed key. Once the Drupal admin has the embed key, use the following steps to finish configuration:

  • Navigate to the settings page in Drupal (/admin/config/content/dubbot/settings).

  • Fill out the form with the embed key and how the report is to be positioned.

  • Save the configuration.

  • Once a site is configured correctly, the overview report will be generated at (/admin/config/content/dubbot).

DubBot Block Configuration

The DubBot interface will appear as a customizable block. Admins can add the DubBot block via the Block Layout page in Drupal. In our demonstration photos for this article, the DubBot block can be seen on the right-hand side of the window.

There are input fields for Title, which is a required field, a checkbox to display title, an input field for DubBot link color, which is a required field, input fields for visibility including pages, roles, content type and vocabulary, which all have radio buttons for "Show" or "Hide." A drop down menu to select where to display the block in the Drupal window, with the default value of "Social Bar."  The submit button is blue with white text and reads "Save Block." To the right is the delete button which is red text that reads "Remove block" with a red trashcan icon to the left of the text.

DubBot Module in Action

At the top and left of each page, a DubBot toolbar button will appear, and can be used to bring the user into the DubBot module block.

The block will appear on the selected page(s) and present a summary of the issues that are pulled from the page crawl information for that page in DubBot. This information will include the total issue count, the last crawl date, a tab for each testing category with details about the corresponding issues, and a link to view the page in DubBot.

DubBot Results Block

The DubBot Report block first shows errors found in a compressed format and then expanded when selected.

DubBot module block in Drupal with the error "Elements must meet enhanced color contrast ratio thresholds" expanded to show that it is WCAG 2 Level AAA 1.4.6. The next paragraph reads Ensures the contrast between foreground and background colors meets WCAG 2 AAA enhanced contrast ratio thresholds. 8 elements: Failure Summary: Fix any of the following: Element has insufficient color contrast of 5.02 (foreground color: #1475ad, background color: #ffffff, font size: 10.5pt (14px), font weight: bold). Expected contrast ratio of 7:1

DubBot only crawls public pages. If you have pages in your CMS that are not published, the DubBot block will not show, as there is no corresponding report for that page in DubBot.

DubBot Module Overview of Results

The module also has an overview page where users given permission can see a higher-altitude version of the data from DubBot. This page is automatically generated and will include information such as Page name, issues count, date of latest crawl, and a link to either view the page report in Drupal (default) or view the page in DubBot if the drop-down menu is opened.

Selecting "View Report" will take the user to that page's DubBot block, as shown below.
