Royal Plugins

<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Not an overlay.</strong> 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.</p>
<h4>Frontend Accessibility Toolbar</h4>
<p>A small floating button that opens a panel with 14 accessibility controls:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Font Size</strong> — Scale text up or down (5 levels)</li>
<li><strong>High Contrast</strong> — Black background with white/yellow text</li>
<li><strong>Dark Mode</strong> — Dark background with light text</li>
