What is WCAG 2.2 and why does it matter?

WCAG 2.2 is the international standard for web accessibility. It defines how to make websites usable for people with disabilities. Compliance is legally required under the ADA in the US and the European Accessibility Act in the EU. Non-compliance can lead to lawsuits, fines, and lost customers.

What does the full report include?

A branded PDF with your compliance score, every violation grouped by severity, fix instructions with code examples, WCAG criteria mapping for each issue, affected HTML elements, and a list of passed checks. Hand it to your developer or attach it to compliance records.

How is this different from free browser tools?

Free tools flag issues inline but produce no exportable documentation. You cannot share the results with stakeholders, attach them to compliance records, or hand them to a developer with fix instructions. ScanAble produces a professional PDF that serves as both an audit record and a remediation plan.

Do I need to create an account?

No. Enter your URL, see your free preview, pay $19, and your report is ready to download. We only ask for an email to deliver the PDF link.

What if the scan fails or the report is wrong?

If our scanner cannot reach your website, you are not charged. If you receive a report you believe contains errors, contact us within 7 days for a full refund.

How long does the scan take?

Most scans finish in 30 to 60 seconds. Pages with heavy JavaScript may take up to 90 seconds. Your PDF is ready to download the moment the scan completes.

WordPress Accessibility Guide

WordPress powers over 40% of the web, but many themes and plugins introduce accessibility barriers. Default themes have improved, but third-party themes often skip proper heading hierarchy, form labels, and keyboard navigation. With ADA lawsuits rising and EAA enforcement active, fixing WordPress accessibility is essential.

Common WordPress accessibility issues

Missing alt text on images

WordPress media library allows empty alt text. Many themes don't enforce it, leaving screen reader users without context for images.

serious

Poor color contrast in themes

Popular themes often use light gray text on white backgrounds, failing WCAG 2.2 contrast requirements (4.5:1 for normal text).

serious

Inaccessible slider/carousel plugins

Most WordPress slider plugins lack keyboard navigation, proper ARIA roles, and screen reader announcements for slide changes.

critical

Missing form labels in contact plugins

Contact Form 7 and similar plugins sometimes render inputs without associated <label> elements, making forms unusable for screen readers.

serious

Broken heading hierarchy

Themes and page builders frequently skip heading levels (H1 → H3) or use headings for styling rather than structure.
