While most accessibility issues can't be addressed without directly changing your theme, WP Accessibility adds a number of helpful accessibility features with a minimum amount of setup or expert knowledge. WP Accessibility is not intended to make your site compatible with any accessibility guidelines. All features can be disabled according to your theme's needs. For advanced users, all of the functions based on modifying stylesheets can be customized using your own custom styles by placing the appropriate stylesheet in your theme directory. = Theme Accessibility Features added by WP Accessibility = These are features that address issues caused by inaccessible themes. * Add skip links with user-defined targets.

Learn more! Read about the accessibility issues corrected by WP Accessibility! The plug-in is intended to help with deficiencies commonly found in themes and to solve some issues in WordPress core. It can't correct every problem (by a long shot), but provides tools to fix some issues, supplement the accessibility of your site, or identify problems. = Statistics Collection = WP Accessibility includes a statistics collection feature to help you identify how WP Accessibility is used on your site.
