Descriere

wA11y is a WordPress plugin that provides a toolbox of resources to help you improve the accessibility of your WordPress website.

What Does „wA11y” Mean?

„A11y” is the commonly used abbreviation for accessibility, since there are eleven letters between the „a” and the „y”.

„w” + „A11y” is my abbreviation for „web accessibility”. #wa11y

What Is Web Accessibility?

Web accessibility refers to the inclusive practice of removing barriers that prevent interaction with, or access to, websites by people with disabilities.

Data shows 1 in 5 people have a disability. If your site is inaccessible, you could be excluding 20% of your potential users, customers, students, and more.

The foundation for good accessibility is great markup which also means that good accessibility can improve your SEO.

The WPCampus community has a great list of accessibility resources and tools available on their website.

This resource is open-source and WPCampus would love for you to contribute. Visit the WPCampus Resources repo to learn how to contribute.

WA11Y PRO TIP: Take advantage of in-browser testing tools, like WAVE and HTML_CodeSniffer, to evaluate WordPress theme demos before you purchase.

As a developer, having this resource to be able to test my plugin directly within the WordPress dashboard and front end is HUGE. Accessibility matters. Since it does, having this tool in your toolbelt as a developer or even someone vetting plugins for users is phenomenal. With this plugin, you no longer have an excuse for putting out inaccessible websites.

This plugin goes on all of my development sites. It makes checking the site for accessibility so much easier than using external resources. Love it. Thank you, Rachel!!!

This plugin is now part of my starters WP install, I use it just after installing a theme, in order to fix any accessibility issues right from the start.

A Plugin Of Great Industry! This plugin teaches you how you can make better sites/plugins/themes/WordPresses Turn this on when your working on developing WordPress sites, plugins or themes or WordPress itself. #realtalk we've all written plenty of code that is not as accessible as it should be. Let's not make these problems worse by ensuring that everything we do write, moving forward is going to be accessible. 5 Stars

Thanks for a wonderful plugin. So far I have played with most of the features and I am really impressed. The fact that I can now check accessibility from a local server is fantastic. Thanks so much.
