Accessibility Guard<\/strong> is a free WordPress plugin that scans your pages for WCAG 2.2 accessibility issues<\/strong> and helps you fix them. Unlike overlay widgets that mask problems without fixing them, this plugin identifies issues at the source code level.<\/p>\n\n Whether you need to comply with ADA<\/strong>, Section 508<\/strong>, EAA (European Accessibility Act)<\/strong>, or simply want to make your website accessible to everyone, Accessibility Guard gives you a clear picture of what needs to be fixed.<\/p>\n\n 20+ WCAG 2.2 Checks Including:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Auto-Fix Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Accessibility Statement Generator:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Generate a complete accessibility statement page with your organization details, WCAG conformance target, and known limitations.<\/p>\n\n Dashboard:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Works With Any Theme & Page Builder:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Accessibility Guard scans the rendered HTML output, so it works with Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Gutenberg, and any other page builder or theme.<\/p>\n\n Upgrade to Accessibility Guard Pro<\/strong> for advanced tools to manage accessibility at scale:<\/p>\n\n Bulk Auto-Fix<\/strong> - Fix multiple accessibility issues across all your pages with one click. Automatically adds missing alt text placeholders, fixes empty links, adds form labels, and corrects heading hierarchy.<\/p>\n\n Audit History<\/strong> - Track your accessibility progress over time with visual charts. See how your issue count changes after each scan and prove compliance improvements to stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n Color Contrast Checker<\/strong> - Test any color combination against WCAG AA and AAA contrast requirements. Enter foreground and background colors to instantly see pass\/fail results with exact contrast ratios.<\/p>\n\n Scheduled Scans<\/strong> - Set up automatic daily, weekly, or monthly scans. Receive email notifications when new accessibility issues are detected so you can fix them before they become a problem.<\/p>\n\n Export Reports (CSV & PDF)<\/strong> - Generate professional accessibility reports for clients, auditors, or internal teams. Export detailed issue lists as CSV for spreadsheets or formatted PDF reports.<\/p>\n\n PDF Accessibility Scanner<\/strong> - Scan uploaded PDF files for accessibility issues including missing tags, document title, language, bookmarks, and text content. Ensure your downloadable documents are accessible too.<\/p>\n\n Custom Rules<\/strong> - Create your own accessibility checks with custom rules. Define patterns to detect (like \"click here\" links or empty table headers) with custom severity levels and WCAG references.<\/p>\n\n\n No. Accessibility Guard is a scanner that identifies issues in your actual page HTML. It does not inject a toolbar or overlay widget. Auto-fixes modify the source output, not a JavaScript layer.<\/p><\/dd>\n No automated tool can guarantee full WCAG compliance. Approximately 40% of WCAG criteria can be tested automatically. Accessibility Guard helps you identify and fix the issues that can be detected programmatically. Manual testing is still recommended for full compliance.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. The scanner works with any page builder (Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Gutenberg, etc.) because it scans the rendered HTML output, not the builder's internal data.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. Scanning happens only in the WordPress admin via AJAX. The only front-end impact is from auto-fixes (skip link, lang attribute), which add minimal overhead.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. ADA and Section 508 both reference WCAG as the technical standard. By scanning for WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA issues, Accessibility Guard helps you identify and fix the same issues required for ADA and Section 508 compliance.<\/p><\/dd>\n The free version includes all 20+ WCAG checks, 4 auto-fixes, the dashboard, and the accessibility statement generator. Pro adds bulk auto-fix, audit history with charts, color contrast checker, scheduled scans with email alerts, CSV\/PDF report exports, PDF accessibility scanning, and custom rules.<\/p><\/dd>\n The plugin can be activated on individual sites within a multisite network. Each site manages its own scans and settings independently.<\/p><\/dd>\n We recommend scanning after any content update or theme\/plugin change. Pro users can set up automatic daily, weekly, or monthly scans to catch issues early.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nFree Features<\/h4>\n\n
