Is WordPress WCAG compliant?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:26 am

WordPress is a content management system that is widely used on the web. It is compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (WCAG 1.0).

PRO TIP: There is no definitive answer to this question as WordPress is a open-source content management system (CMS) and WCAG is a set of guidelines for accessibility. However, there are some features of WordPress that can help make your site more accessible, such as the ability to add alt text to images and embedding accessible videos.

This means that WordPress is easy for people with disabilities to use and understand. WordPress is also compliant with the Section 508 Standards. This means that it is accessible to people with disabilities, including those who have visual impairments.
