Why server-side

JS-based accessibility overlays patch the DOM after the browser renders it. The original HTML (the one Google indexes, axe-core audits, and screen readers without JS see) remains unmodified. LivQ AccessFix intercepts the full rendered HTML via PHP output buffering and fixes the source itself, before it reaches the browser.

What it fixes

Frontend

  • External link labelling (target="_blank" + rel="noopener noreferrer") (WCAG 2.4.4)
  • Skip navigation link, auto-detectable target (WCAG 2.4.1)
  • Decorative image alt fix, including Full Site Editor / block themes (WCAG 1.1.1)
  • High-contrast focus-visible CSS (WCAG 2.4.11)
  • Menu accessibility helper (ARIA + keyboard toggle) (WCAG 4.1.2)

HTML output remediations (EAA)

  • Nameless link fix (icon/image links without accessible text) (WCAG 2.4.4 / 4.1.2)
  • Iframe title fix, matched from src domain (WCAG 4.1.2)
  • Form input label fix (WCAG 1.3.1 / 3.3.2)

Content analysis

  • Heading hierarchy checker on save (WCAG 1.3.1)
  • Gutenberg pre-publish accessibility checklist (WCAG 1.1.1 / 2.4.4)

Compliance tools

  • Accessibility Scanner: severity-scored scan across key page types, incl. WooCommerce
  • Accessibility Issues Log with CSV export
  • Contrast Checker: real-time WCAG 2.1 analysis
  • Accessibility Statement Generator: legally-compliant, auto-populated, shortcode [livqacea_accessibility_statement]

WooCommerce

  • ARIA labels on quantity controls, gallery triggers, and cart live regions (WCAG 4.1.2 / 4.1.3)

Every module can be independently enabled or disabled from Settings → LivQ AccessFix. Page builder editors (Divi, Elementor, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, Breakdance) are automatically detected and excluded from output buffering.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.0+
  • PHP 7.4+

This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. No third-party services, no CDN, no external API calls.

Support

Reporting a security problem

Not in a public issue: use the Security tab, then Report a vulnerability. This plugin rewrites every page a site serves, so a report stays private until there is a fix. What counts as one here, and what does not, is in SECURITY.md.

Contributing

How to report, propose and build is in CONTRIBUTING.md. Development runs on PHPCS with the WordPress Coding Standards:

composer install
composer phpcs

WordPress requires the GPL, and the choice suits a plugin that sits in the render path of somebody else's site: whatever it does to their HTML, they can read it and change it.
