What the author says it does

Web Accessibility (formally known as Ally) is a free, powerful, and user-friendly plugin that helps WordPress creators build more accessible websites with ease.

It simplifies accessibility with three essential tools:

  • Accessibility Assistant – Scan your pages, detect accessibility violations, and follow guided steps to fix them. Make manual adjustments or apply AI-powered suggestions, and track your progress.
  • Usability widget – Let visitors personalize their browsing experience with a floating accessibility menu. Features include font resizing, color contrast, image hiding, animation pausing, language selection, screen reader support, and more.
  • Accessibility statement generator – Create a fully customized accessibility statement and publish it automatically on your site, helping meet WCAG and legal requirements.

No expertise required – Just activate, configure, and start making your site more inclusive today. Built by Elementor and designed for every WordPress site.

Why does web accessibility matter?

  • Who Needs It? Every website owner, for businesses, creators, and agencies.
  • Who is Responsible? Website owners are legally and ethically responsible for accessibility. The web creator who designs and builds the site must implement and adjust accessibility features to ensure compliance with WCAG guidelines and provide an inclusive experience for all users.

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.

Questions the author answers

What is the Web Accessibility plugin?

Web Accessibility is an accessibility plugin for WordPress websites. It helps web creators build more inclusive websites using a customizable widget, on-demand accessibility scans, AI-powered issue remediation, and a centralized dashboard to track progress.

Who is Web Accessibility for?

Web Accessibility is ideal for freelancers, agencies, and DIY website owners who want to improve accessibility and align with WCAG standards

Is Web Accessibility GDPR compliant?

Yes, Web Accessibility is GDPR compliant. To meet your privacy obligations, you must list Elementor as a sub-processor in your privacy notice. Our Data Processing Agreement (DPA) outlines all privacy-related requirements.

Can Web Accessibility guarantee that my site is fully accessible?

No automated tool can promise full accessibility. Web Accessibility helps you detect and fix the most common violations, but achieving full compliance requires human testing and judgment. Think of Web Accessibility as a powerful assistant-not a complete substitute for manual review.

What is an accessibility statement, and how do I create one?

An accessibility statement is a public declaration of your commitment to inclusive digital experiences. Web Accessibility helps you easily generate and publish one as a dedicated page on your website.

Why do I need an Elementor account to use Web Accessibility?

An Elementor account lets you manage your Web Accessibility settings, track usage, and unlock advanced features like the Assistant and AI fixes.

Latest changelog entry

4.1.4 – 2026-08-xx

  • Tweak: Versioned the rendered-HTML cache so previously cached (potentially corrupted) HTML is regenerated after the rendering pipeline changes
  • Fix: Prevented the remediation runner from corrupting inline <script> and <style> blocks (e.g. WooCommerce archive scripts with multibyte characters) during the DOMDocument round-trip, which caused console syntax errors and broken page layouts
  • Fix: Scanner error on pages with no headings
  • Fix: Plugin row links throws errors on Jetpack cron

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
