H. WCAG
What is WCAG?
WAI is Web Accessibility Initiative - an initiative established by the W3C, defining the standards for creating web pages, which have to be available for many users - in the project participate companies such as IBM, Microsoft, Google, Apple (the author of WCAG). Web Content Accessibility Guidelines is a collection of documents relating to the availability of Internet services, Since 2012 has the status of international standard ISO.
WCAG in theme
- Page navigation by using keyboard - you don’t need to use a computer mouse to navigate through the relevant divs of the website, just keyboard will be enough
- Skip to the following Menu items is possible with the Tab key, so we can quickly move through the page
- Avoidance of animated elements (facilities for people suffering from epilepsy) stable graphics, no garish animated effects is one of the advantages of our theme
- High contrast mode: ensure optimal readability of the text ( Black/White Mode, Black/Yellow Mode, Yellow/Black Mode)
- Night mode - lets you avoid eyestrain. If your eyes get tired quickly, don’t strain them and to use night mode color version
- Width switcher (fixed/fluid) adjust the width of the screen to fit your needs
- Font size switcher (3 degrees of font size, which are fixed as a percentage)
You can easily customize all of the available facilities (disable and enable mods depending on your requirements) in Theme Options
Shortcut menu configuration
Shortcut menu in the top left corner of screen is visible when you use keyboard to navigate on the site (use TAB key). It allows for quick access to interesting or important content parts.
You can manage links and items in WordPress backend Appearance > Menus > Select 'Skip Menu' if exists or create new menu in 'Skip Menu' theme location.
If you want create a new link in menu, simply chose Custom Links type.
As URL you should set div ID where you want to link. You can check document divs ID with any Code inspector in your browser. Example in Chrome (F12 button) :
Id of Bottom 1 div in example is 'pe-bottom1' which means we can add Custom Link in Skip menu with URL : #pe-bottom1
Content headings configuration
All main divs in theme have its own headings for users who use screen readers. It is helpful to browse the site and correctly recognize each part of site.
You can easly change labels in Theme Options > WCAG & ADA
Heading level for each section
You can set heading level for widgets in sections ( from H1 to H6 ). It's very useful when creating WCAG friendly website - you will avoid error with missing heading level.
