<p>Images without alt text are a problem for accessibility (screen readers) and SEO.<br />
This lightweight plugin automatically adds alt attributes where they are missing:</p>
<ul>
<li>Inside post content <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> uses the current post title.  </li>
<li>For images loaded via <code>wp_get_attachment_image()</code> <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> uses the image filename (without extension).  </li>
</ul>
<p>If an image already has alt text, the plugin leaves it untouched.</p>
<p>No settings, no configuration — just activate and your site is more accessible.</p>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Improves accessibility by ensuring images have alt text.  </li>
<li>Helps SEO by filling in descriptive alt attributes.  </li>
<li>Post/page content images get the post title.  </li>
<li>Template images (e.g. theme calls) get the filename.  </li>
<li>Super lightweight and fast.</li>
</ul>

<h4>Purpose:</h4>
<p>Many sites have dropdown menus where the expanding of the links can only be triggered by a mouse hover. This means that for keyboard only users parts of the site are harder or sometimes impossible to reach.</p>
<p>This plugin makes these dropdown menus keyboard accessible. When tabbing through the primary navigation the sub level menus will become visible and users will be able to tab to the lower level links.</p>
<p>The current version has been tested by both sighted keyboard-only users and screen reader users. If it doesn’t work for your reader, please let us know!</p>
<h4>How it Works:</h4>
<p>The plugin uses a combination of CSS and javascript to enable the dropdown menus to be keyboard controlled.</p>
<p>Using the script, whenever a link in the menu gets focus its containing list item (</p>
<li>) is given the necessary class. This enables the new CSS definitions to open any hidden submenus and bring those links into the tabbing order.</li>
<p>In the absence of javascript the full submenu lists may not open but the individual sub-links can be tabbed to.</p>

<p>The original version of this plugin was built by Graham Armfield. It is still available at http://www.coolfields.co.uk/2011/12/wordpress-keyboard-accessible-dropdown-menus-plugin-version-0-1/</p>
<p>The mechanism used in this plugin is based on the same logic used in Blake Haswell’s excellent example of a multi-level accessible dropdown menu. You can find it at: http://blakehaswell.com/lab/dropdown/deux/</p>
