<h3></h3>
changing the font size intenially doesn’t affect the tag
HIGHLIGHT_LINKS:

toggles the class ‘coolaxs_highlight_links’ in all the header tags ( “:focusable,a” )

<h3></h3>
if you want to change things in css – this icon adds the folowing class: 
 coolaxs_focus_css_activated
Keyboard Navigation Skip Menu:
<h3></h3>
the “skip to page content” message with fixed position is added to the top of the page 
with a css z-index:99 (because the zoom-text magnify glass of the cool-accessibility plug-in should be on top of that) 
 if there is a
<
nav> tag in the page
so this means that if there is a fixed header on the top of the page its z-index should be less than 99
PREVENT ANIMATION:
<h3></h3>
1. 
 // the following suffix should be at every animated gif or static so javascript could toggle between them automatically 
 var str_normal_image = “_static.gif”; 
 var str_animated_gif_image = “_animated.gif”;
2.
the plug in also toggles between these 2 embeded video autoplay modes 
so the video will not autoplay upon page load
embeded video
<
iframe src=”…?autoplay=1″> 
embeded video
<
iframe src=”…?autoplay=0″>
3. 
if there is an automatic loop flexslider it stops it:
BRIGHT / DARK CONTRAST
<h3></h3>
1. 
the plug in adds the following classes so you can further modify your css file: 
coolaxs_bright_contrast 
coolaxs_dark_contrast
2. 
there is also an automatic image / background image flipping mode if you prefer by the suffix of the image name
2a. 
if you have 3 images – 1 for normal contrast 2. for dark contrast 3. for bright contrast
add to your normal contrast image / background image the following suffix: “_normal_to_both” 
so your image name becomes: 
 imagename_normal_to_both.jpg 
 (or imagename_normal_to_both.png or imagename_normal_to_both.gif)
and provide in the same directory 2 more images (assuming a jpg image type) 
imagename_bright_contrast.jpg 
imagename_dark_contrast.jpg
2b. 
if you have only 2 images – 1 for normal contrast 2. for dark contrast 
and for bright contrast you use the normal contrast image 
then modify your original image / background image to this: 
imagename_normal_to_dark.jpg 
 (or imagename_normal_to_dark.png or imagename_normal_to_dark.gif)
and provide in the same directory 1 more image (assuming a jpg image type) 
imagename_dark_contrast.jpg
2c. 
if you have only 2 images – 1 for normal contrast 2. for bright contrast 
and for dark contrast you use the normal contrast image 
then modify your original image / background image to this: 
imagename_normal_to_bright.jpg 
 (or imagename_normal_to_bright.png or imagename_normal_to_bright.gif)
and provide in the same directory 1 more image (assuming a jpg image type) 
imagename_bright_contrast.jpg

Cool Accessibility

Accessibility plugin - Make the site easier to read and navigate

Joe Dolson

This plug-in helps with a variety of common accessibility problems in WordPress themes. While most accessibility issues can’t be addressed without directly changing your theme, WP Accessibility adds a number of helpful accessibility features with a minimum amount of setup or expert knowledge.
WP Accessibility is not intended to make your site compatible with any accessibility guidelines.
All features can be disabled according to your theme’s needs. For advanced users, all of the functions based on modifying stylesheets can be customized using your own custom styles by placing the appropriate stylesheet in your theme directory.
<h4>Theme Accessibility Features added by WP Accessibility</h4>
These are features that address issues caused by inaccessible themes.
<ul>
<li>Add skip links with user-defined targets. (Customizable targets and appearance.)</li>
<li>Add language and text direction attributes to your HTML attribute if missing.</li>
<li>Add an outline to the keyboard focus state for focusable elements.</li>
<li>Add a long description to images. Use the image’s “Description” field to add long descriptions.</li>
<li>Enforcement for alt attributes on images in the Classic editor.</li>
<li>Identify images without alt attributes in the Media Library</li>
<li>Add labels to standard WordPress form fields (search, comments)</li>

<li>Remove tabindex from elements that are focusable. (Also fixes plugin-caused problems.)</li>
<li>Remove user-scalable=no to allow resizing.</li>
</ul>
<h4>WordPress Core Accessibility Issues fixed by WP Accessibility</h4>
These are features that address issues caused by current or past WordPress core accessibility issues. (Issues added in content, such as target or title attributes, are persistent even when WordPress is updated.)
<ul>
<li>Force a search page error when a search is made with an empty text string. (If your theme has a search.php template.)</li>
<li>Remove redundant title attributes from tag clouds.</li>
<li>Disable default enabling of full screen block editor.</li>
</ul>
Content specific fixes:
<ul>
<li>Strip title attributes from images inserted into content.</li>
<li>Remove the target attribute from links.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Accessibility Tools in WP Accessibility:</h4>
These are tools provided to help you identify issues you may need to fix.

The plug-in is intended to help with deficiencies commonly found in themes and to solve some issues in WordPress core. It can’t correct every problem (by a long shot), but provides tools to fix some issues, supplement the accessibility of your site, or identify problems.
<h4>Statistics Collection</h4>
WP Accessibility includes a statistics collection feature to help you identify how WP Accessibility is used on your site. This package does not collect any personally identifying data.
