Hi Jen. I would rate this issue as medium (low, medium, high).
Although it affects the link list feature of a specific screen reader (JAWS), all screen readers are still able to read the link texts and users are still able to understand the purpose of the links. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

This also messes up link order when using JAWS' "List links" feature. Since the icons use the :before CSS pseudo-element, I suspect this is unfixable (and a problem with JAWS), but it's worth looking into whether there is a solution which allows Font Awesome icons to be used but doesn't compromise screen reader accessibility. It's also worth testing with NVDA to see if the same problem exists.
