<p><strong>Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Static code scanning for accessibility issues</li>
<li>Frontend accessibility widget</li>
<li>WCAG 2.1 AA compliance tracking</li>
<li>Easy-to-use setup wizard</li>

</ul>
<h3>Server Requirements & Configuration</h3>
<p>ABILITY follows standard WordPress requirements and should work on any host that supports a normal WordPress installation.</p>
<h4>Minimum technical requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>Web server: Apache (recommended) or Nginx, configured for WordPress pretty permalinks.</li>
<li>PHP: 7.4 or higher, with common extensions enabled (DOM, JSON, cURL or equivalent HTTP transport).</li>
<li>MySQL / MariaDB: As required by your WordPress version.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Apache (default WordPress setup)</h4>
<p>Most shared hosts run Apache with <code>.htaccess</code> support enabled:</p>
<ul>
<li>Ensure <code>AllowOverride</code> is enabled so WordPress can manage <code>.htaccess</code> and pretty permalinks.</li>
<li>Use one of WordPress’s pretty permalink structures under <strong>Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Permalinks</strong>.</li>
<li>No special rewrite rules are required specifically for ABILITY; it uses normal WordPress AJAX and admin-ajax.php.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Nginx</h4>
<p>When running Nginx, ensure your configuration supports WordPress permalinks and admin Ajax:</p>
<ul>
<li>Use the official WordPress Nginx rules (see WordPress.org documentation) to route requests to <code>index.php</code>.</li>
<li>Make sure <code>admin-ajax.php</code> is accessible (no custom blocking rules on <code>/wp-admin/</code> AJAX).</li>
<li>No ABILITY-specific location blocks are required; the plugin uses standard WordPress hooks and endpoints.</li>
</ul>
<p>If in doubt, configure the server to meet the <a href="https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/" rel="ugc">WordPress Hosting Requirements</a> first; ABILITY will work on any environment that satisfies those.</p>
