Royal Plugins

Royal Access is a free WordPress accessibility plugin with a frontend toolbar, automatic WCAG code fixes, a contrast checker, and an accessibility statement generator — no account required, no external dependencies, no SaaS subscription.
Built for WCAG 2.2, ADA, Section 508, and European Accessibility Act (EAA) awareness. Includes a bundled dyslexia-friendly font (OpenDyslexic) that most accessibility plugins don’t offer.
Not an overlay. Unlike tools condemned by accessibility professionals and fined by the FTC, Royal Access does NOT reparse the DOM, does NOT interfere with screen readers, and does NOT inject AI-generated ARIA. It simply provides user controls that work WITH assistive technology.
<h4>Frontend Accessibility Toolbar</h4>
A small floating button that opens a panel with 14 accessibility controls:
<ul>
<li>Font Size — Scale text up or down (5 levels)</li>
<li>High Contrast — Black background with white/yellow text</li>
<li>Dark Mode — Dark background with light text</li>
<li>Dyslexia Font — OpenDyslexic font for easier reading</li>
<li>Line Height — Increase line spacing for readability</li>
<li>Letter Spacing — Increase letter spacing</li>
<li>Word Spacing — Increase word spacing</li>
<li>Highlight Links — Underline and outline all links</li>
<li>Big Cursor — Larger mouse cursor</li>
<li>Stop Animations — Disable all animations and transitions</li>
<li>Hide Images — Dim images for distraction-free reading</li>
<li>Monochrome — Convert page to greyscale</li>
<li>Reading Guide — Horizontal highlight bar follows mouse</li>
<li>Highlight Focus — Extra-visible focus indicators</li>
<li>Reset All — Return to defaults</li>
</ul>
All user preferences are saved in the browser (localStorage) and persist across page loads — no cookies, no server calls, fully GDPR-friendly.
<h4>Automatic Code-Level Fixes</h4>
Applied server-side via WordPress hooks — no user action needed:
<ul>
<li>Skip-to-Content Link — Keyboard-accessible link to skip navigation</li>
<li>Focus Indicators — Consistent :focus-visible outlines on all elements</li>
<li>Viewport Zoom Fix — Removes user-scalable=no so users can pinch-to-zoom</li>
<li>Read More Context — Adds post title to “Read more” links for screen readers</li>
</ul>
<h4>Admin Tools</h4>
<ul>
<li>Accessibility Checklist — 8-item checklist showing which accessibility features are active</li>
<li>Contrast Checker — Verify your colors meet WCAG AA/AAA standards</li>
<li>Statement Generator — Generate a starting-point accessibility statement template (WCAG 2.1, 2.2, or EAA) — must be reviewed and customized before publishing</li>
<li>Per-Feature Controls — Enable/disable any toolbar feature individually</li>
</ul>
<h4>Why Royal Access?</h4>
<ul>
<li>100% free — Every feature, no upsells, no locked Pro tier</li>
<li>No account required — Install and activate, that’s it</li>
<li>No external dependencies — All assets are local, no CDN calls</li>
<li>Lightweight — Under 60KB total frontend assets</li>
<li>Privacy-first — No cookies, no tracking, localStorage only</li>
<li>WCAG-aware — Built with WCAG 2.2 guidelines in mind (does not guarantee compliance)</li>
<li>EAA-aware — Helps address some European Accessibility Act requirements</li>
<li>Not an overlay — Works WITH screen readers, not against them</li>
<li>Keyboard navigable — The toolbar itself is fully keyboard-accessible</li>
<li>Translation-ready — All strings are internationalized</li>
</ul>
<h4>Who Is This For?</h4>
<ul>
<li>Small business owners who need basic accessibility improvements without hiring a consultant</li>
<li>Freelancers and agencies building client sites that need an accessibility toolbar out of the box</li>
<li>Non-profits and government sites working toward Section 508 or ADA requirements</li>
<li>WooCommerce store owners wanting to make their shop more inclusive</li>
<li>Bloggers and publishers who want readers to adjust font size, contrast, and spacing</li>
<li>Anyone avoiding overlays — if you’ve read the Overlay Fact Sheet and want a tool that works WITH assistive technology instead of against it</li>
</ul>
