Accessibility measures how accessible a product or service, such as an application, website, or vehicle, is to people with disabilities. Accessibility can be achieved through products and services designed for all users regardless of disability type. The accessiBe WordPress Plugin helps you make your website more accessible by scanning your website for accessibility issues, providing feedback, and suggesting solutions. This article will show you how to use the accessiBe WordPress Plugin.
Installation
First, you need to install and activate the plugin. You can do this from the Plugins page of your WordPress maintenance service. Once the plugin is activated, it will start scanning your website for accessibility issues. The scan may take a few minutes to complete, depending on the size of your website.
After the scan is complete, you will be taken to the accessiBe settings page. Here, you can see a list of all the accessibility issues found on your website. For each issue, there is a brief description and a link to more information about the issue.
