常见问题:
Do I need a HandyPal account?
Yes. The Free plan includes the visitor widget for one website, with HandyPal branding and 5,000 widget loads per month. Paid plans add background fixes, optional AI assistance, scans, and PDF reports. See current plans and trial terms at handypal.net.
Will this slow down my website?
The widget loads asynchronously from the HandyPal CDN. Performance depends on your site, network, and configuration.
Is HandyPal WCAG 2.1 compliant?
HandyPal provides visitor accessibility tools. Installing a widget does not guarantee WCAG conformance or legal compliance. Audit your content and fix accessibility issues in your site code.
Does it work with caching plugins?
The plugin includes JavaScript exclusions for WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, and Autoptimize. Test your caching setup after installation.
Can I use this on multiple sites?
Yes! Depending on your plan, you can use HandyPal on 1-20+ websites. Each WordPress installation will automatically register as a site on your account.
What if I already have another accessibility plugin?
HandyPal will detect other accessibility plugins and display a warning. We recommend using only one accessibility widget to avoid conflicts.
How do I customize the widget appearance?
Widget customization (position, colors, icons, button text) is managed from your HandyPal dashboard. Go to your website's Customize page at handypal.net/dashboard to adjust the appearance.
What happens if my subscription expires?
The widget will stop appearing on your site. Your settings are preserved, so if you resubscribe, the widget will work again automatically.
