Diverting our attention for a moment, let’s quickly jump to how to choose an accessible WordPress theme for yoursite. Steps To Choose An Accessible WordPressTheme 1. Pick a theme that is accessibility ready. Many theme developers are implementing the guidelines from the WordPress Theme Accessibility Handbook, so the best thing you can do to have a fully accessible website is simply ask them if a specific theme is accessibilityready. For instance, just have a look at the Total WordPress theme. When you visit the UH website through WAVEweb accessibility evaluation tool you

  3. will get to see how they have implemented the theme’s features to increase the usability of their website for allstudents. Another way to get free accessible themes is by simply going to WordPress.org and clicking on the Themes menu link found at the top of the page. Theme Directory will be opened then and after that you can find a sub-menu named as Feature Filter. And just besides the title you will see there is a little gear, just click that. You will find plenty of options rendered on your screen to choosefrom. Under Features, click the topmost feature that reads like Accessibility Ready. You may then check mark more filters that you like. Just at your left you will also see there is a Apply Filters button that will display how many filters you have applied. Click it and wait for a couple ofseconds. Now pick a theme of your choice from the options shown on themonitor. Take note that just because a theme shows up as Accessibility Ready does not guarantee it is “fully accessible.” However, if a theme developer has marked their theme as accessible, there is a high chance that it does the job.
