Check out the [Tota11y github page](https://github.com/jdan/tota11y). The process of testing for accessibility (a11y) is often tedious and confusing. In many cases, developers must have some prior accessibility knowledge in order to make sense of the results. Instead, tota11y aims to reduce this barrier of entry by helping visualize accessibility violations (and successes), while educating on best practices. #### How it works WP Tota11y is a single JavaScript file that inserts a small button in the bottom corner of your document. The toolbar consists of several plugins that each provide their own functionality. Many of these plugins “annotate” elements on the page. Sometimes to show their existence, other times to point out when something’s wrong. #### Compatibility This plugin is compatible with [ClassicPress](https://www.classicpress.net). #### Contributions This plugin is also available in [Codeberg](https://codeberg.org/cyclotouriste/wp-tota11y). ## Screenshots [⌊Admin View with Tota11y enabled, after clicking on the Headings option.⌉⌊Admin View with Tota11y enabled, after clicking on the Headings option.⌉[ Admin View with Tota11y enabled, after clicking on the Headings option. ## Installation Installation * Install the plugin through the ‘Plugins / New Plugin’ menu in WordPress. * Alternatively, Upload the plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. * Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress. * That is really all. You should see a small button in the bottom left of each page. * Click that button and enjoy. ## FAQ ### When should I use this plugin? You should only use it when developing your site. It is not intended to be used on a live site with visitors. ### I don’t see the button after activating. It is likely that you have JavaScript errors in your website. You can open the inspector of your browser, and check your messages in the console tab.

Empty alt field show a yellow triangle. when i add “” to the alt field, there’s no warning anymore. So now i’m wondering what is the best use? Leave empty or type “” if the image is decorative. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/efcd16f723dd901473cae312f455fa4790e20ccafadf2123ea86d2aee8c7bccd? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very useful for development](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-useful-for-development-3/)󠁿 [Antti Koskinen](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kantti/) May 29, 2018 Thank you @mpol for making this plugin. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9708f3ba1b5d39abd7b3c640ff70eed03c85c5d67a939ea9974c6b5769e75642? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Usefull for development](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usefull-for-development/)󠁿 [Marcel Pol](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mpol/) September 3, 2016 Posting a review as author :).
