DocAccess is an accessibility service from CivicPlus that automatically makes PDF documents and other files on your website accessible to people with disabilities. This is the official DocAccess plugin: install it, flip the switch, and the DocAccess service handles the rest.
This plugin does not process documents itself. It adds a small helper script to your pages that lets the DocAccess service (operated by CivicPlus at docaccess.com) discover document links and make them accessible to your visitors. An active DocAccess account with your domain registered is required.
How it works:
<ol>
<li>Install and activate the plugin</li>
<li>Go to Settings > DocAccess</li>
<li>Toggle the switch to enable</li>
<li>Log in to your DocAccess account at <a href="https://docaccess.com" rel="nofollow ugc">docaccess.com</a> to configure your documents</li>
</ol>
Features:
<ul>
<li>One-click setup — no code editing required</li>
<li>Automatic document link discovery on all pages</li>
<li>Accessible document viewer for your visitors</li>
<li>Lightweight — adds a single async script with zero impact on page speed</li>
<li>Fully accessible and keyboard navigable settings page</li>
</ul>
Requirements:
An active DocAccess account from CivicPlus is required. Your website domain must be registered in your DocAccess dashboard. Visit <a href="https://docaccess.com" rel="nofollow ugc">docaccess.com</a> to get started.
<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin relies on the DocAccess service, operated by CivicPlus, to provide its functionality. When you enable the plugin’s toggle, the plugin loads a helper script from docaccess.com on the front end of your site. The helper script then communicates with the DocAccess service on behalf of your visitors.
The plugin and helper script connect to the following endpoints on docaccess.com (operated by CivicPlus):
1. Helper script (docaccess.com)
<ul>
<li>What it is: The DocAccess helper script (<code>docbox.js</code>), used to discover document links and serve the accessible document viewer.</li>
<li>When it runs: On every page load on the front end of your site, but only after you toggle DocAccess on in the plugin settings. The script is not loaded when DocAccess is toggled off.</li>
<li>What is sent: A standard HTTP request to docaccess.com to fetch the script. The request includes information your browser normally sends with any third-party script request (IP address, user agent, referring page).</li>
</ul>
2. Domain configuration (docaccess.com)
<ul>
<li>What it is: A read-only configuration file describing how DocAccess should behave on your domain (e.g., whether the domain is registered, which file patterns to look for).</li>
<li>When it runs: Once per page load, when the helper script initialises.</li>
<li>What is sent: Your site’s hostname (e.g., <code>example.com</code>), so the service can return the configuration for that domain.</li>
</ul>
3. Document link intake (docaccess.com/api/v2/documents/intake/url)
<ul>
<li>What it is: The DocAccess document intake endpoint, used to register newly discovered document links so they can be processed for accessibility.</li>
<li>When it runs: When the helper script finds a document link (PDF, DOCX, etc.) on a page that has not yet been seen.</li>
<li>What is sent: The URL of the document link and the URL of the page it was found on. No visitor personal data is sent.</li>
</ul>
All three endpoints are operated by CivicPlus, Inc. at docaccess.com. Use of these services is governed by the DocAccess terms and privacy policy:
<ul>
<li>DocAccess Terms of Service: <a href="https://docaccess.com/terms-of-service" rel="nofollow ugc">https://docaccess.com/terms-of-service</a></li>
<li>DocAccess Privacy Policy: <a href="https://docaccess.com/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">https://docaccess.com/privacy-policy</a></li>
</ul>
The fonts used on the plugin’s settings page (Lato) are bundled with the plugin and served locally — no font CDN or other third-party host is contacted by this plugin.

Stop ADA lawsuits before they start. Cirv Guard scans your WordPress site for WCAG 2.1 accessibility violations and tells you exactly what to fix.
Accessibility isn’t optional — the EU Accessibility Act is now in force, ADA lawsuits are up 300%, and 96.3% of websites have detectable WCAG failures. Cirv Guard finds yours.
<h4>Why Accessibility Matters</h4>
<ul>
<li>Legal protection – ADA/EAA compliance reduces lawsuit risk</li>
<li>Larger audience – 1.3 billion people worldwide live with disabilities</li>
<li>Better SEO – Accessible sites rank higher (Google rewards usability)</li>
<li>Higher conversions – Usable sites convert better for everyone</li>
<li>Brand reputation – Demonstrate your commitment to inclusion</li>
</ul>
<h4>Features</h4>
Alt Text Checker (WCAG 1.1.1) 
Scans every image on your page for missing or empty alt attributes. Respects decorative images marked with role=”presentation”.
Heading Hierarchy Checker (WCAG 1.3.1) 
Detects skipped heading levels (h1 to h3), missing H1 tags, and multiple H1s on a single page.
Color Contrast Checker (WCAG 1.4.3) 
Analyzes text/background color pairs against the WCAG 2.1 minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1. Uses the W3C relative luminance formula.
Form Label Checker (WCAG 1.3.1) 
Verifies that every form input has an associated label — via <code>for</code> attribute, wrapping <code><label></code>, <code>aria-label</code>, or <code>aria-labelledby</code>.
Link Text Checker (WCAG 2.4.4) 
Flags generic link text like “click here” and “read more”. Detects empty links and links with no accessible name.
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install & Activate – One-click from the WordPress plugin directory</li>
<li>Go to Cirv Guard – New top-level menu item with shield icon</li>
<li>Run a Scan – Scan any page or post on your site</li>
<li>Review Results – Color-coded pass/fail results with accessibility score</li>

<li>Content publishers – Ensure blog posts meet accessibility standards</li>
<li>Anyone who wants to avoid a $75,000+ ADA demand letter</li>
</ul>
<h4>Technical Highlights</h4>
<ul>
<li>Lightweight single-file architecture (no bloat)</li>
<li>Server-side scanning via PHP DOMDocument (no external APIs)</li>
<li>Transient caching for fast repeat scans</li>
<li>Multisite compatible with cache isolation</li>

</ul>
<h3>What’s new in the Cirv ecosystem</h3>
We are building the next plugin in the Cirv suite — Cirv Sight.
WCAG protects you from human lawsuits. Cirv Sight protects you from AI invisibility. Yoast tells you you’re invisible to Google. Cirv Sight tells you you’re invisible to ChatGPT — and lets you charge AI bots to crawl you.
Cirv Sight ships an llms.txt for your WordPress site, then watches what ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews actually do with it. You get four numbers per page: citations, AI-bot crawls, share of voice, and a Cloudflare 402 pay-per-crawl estimate. Same Cirvgreen team, same engineer-honest data — pointed at AI search instead of accessibility.
