Plain Access Check

The European Accessibility Act has applied to many online shops and services in the EU since 28 June 2025, and the standard behind it is WCAG 2.1 AA. Overlay widgets run on top of a page and don't change its markup, which is what screen readers and auditors read. Plain Access Check reads your home page and your most recently edited pages, posts and products, and lists the failures that can be found in the markup:

• images without alt text (1.1.1),
• form fields without a label (1.3.1, 4.1.2),
• links and buttons with no accessible name, such as icon links (2.4.4, 4.1.2),
• embedded maps and videos without a title (4.1.2),
• empty headings, skipped heading levels and a missing h1 (1.3.1),
• a missing page language or title (3.1.1, 2.4.2),
• a viewport that blocks zooming (1.4.4),
• duplicate ids (4.1.1).

Each failure comes with where to fix it in WordPress. If an overlay widget is on the page, it's named. What it doesn't check: colour contrast, keyboard access, focus order and captions need a browser and a person, and only a person can judge whether alt text makes sense. Passing these checks doesn't make a site compliant. Privacy: the plugin requests your own pages from your own server and reads them. Nothing is sent anywhere, and there's no tracking. Results are stored in one option, removed when you delete the plugin. This is an early version, built by Hieu Tran with AI agents.
