Description

Closes #41. Adds aria-hidden="true" to all instances of the ✳︎ in the home.php template, so it doesn't get announced by a screen reader or assistive device.

Testing Instructions

  1. Turn on VoiceOver on MacOS.
  2. Read the home.php page on the front end
  3. Notice that the "asterisks" don't get announced.

Hi, this has already been attempted. It does not work because the unexpected attribute causes a problem with the markup when saving.
See #51
