Built-in accessibility tools
- Gutenberg Editor Accessibility
Our content editors use the built-in accessibility checks in the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg), which flags common issues such as missing image alt text, insufficient heading structure, and low-contrast colour combinations. - WP Accessibility Functionality
We use the WP Accessibility plugin to automatically add skip-to-content links, improve focus outlines, and fix known markup issues that can impede assistive technologies.
