WordPress accessibility hub

Central starting point for WordPress teams: scan a URL, follow structured fix pages for high-impact issues, then verify with another scan.

Scan a public URL

Common accessibility issues on WordPress

  • Form plugins and themes that rely on placeholders instead of labels.
  • Icon-only buttons and mega menus without names or keyboard support.
  • Page-builder sections with skipped or duplicated heading levels.
  • Featured images and galleries missing meaningful alt text.

How to approach fixes

  1. Fix the parent theme or child theme pattern before patching single posts.
  2. Disable or replace plugin output that injects inaccessible markup when possible.
  3. After changes, clear caches and scan the same URL again.

Issue fix pages (WordPress)

Recommended workflow

  1. Scan the page or template that shows the failure.
  2. Open the issue, then the WordPress fix page for that issue.
  3. Apply the change in theme, plugin settings, or custom code.
  4. Rescan the same URL.
