Overview — traffic light, issues by type and pages with problems

Auf Deutsch: Barrierefrei-Check findet Barrierefreiheits-Probleme auf Ihrer WordPress-Seite und erstellt die nach dem BFSG (Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz / EAA) geforderte Erklärung zur Barrierefreiheit — komplett auf Ihrem eigenen Server. Über 20 automatische WCAG-Prüfungen für Seiten, Beiträge und WooCommerce-Produkte plus ein Generator für die Barrierefreiheitserklärung nach Anlage 3 BFSG (Deutsch, Englisch, Spanisch). Kein Cloud-Dienst, kein Konto, keine externen Verbindungen — alle Daten bleiben auf Ihrer Seite.

Barrierefrei-Check finds accessibility problems on your WordPress site and generates the accessibility statement required under the German BFSG (European Accessibility Act) — entirely on your own server.

Since June 2025 the German Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG) — implementing the European Accessibility Act (EAA) — requires many businesses that sell products or services to consumers online to make their digital services accessible and to publish information on how they do so. This plugin gives you both tools in one place:

1. Accessibility scanner (20+ automated checks)

Scans your published pages, posts and WooCommerce products for machine-detectable WCAG problems:

  • Images without alt text, linked images without a text alternative
  • Links and buttons without an accessible name, ambiguous link texts (“click here”)
  • Form fields without labels
  • Empty headings and skipped heading levels
  • iframes without titles, data tables without header cells
  • Positive tabindex, autoplaying media, missing caption tracks
  • Site-level checks on your homepage: missing lang attribute, blocked zoom, missing main landmark, missing skip link, missing h1

Results appear as a clear traffic light with per-page detail, a dashboard widget, and an editor metabox with one-click re-check. New content is re-checked automatically on save.

2. Accessibility statement generator (DE / EN / ES)

Creates the “Erklärung zur Barrierefreiheit” following the mandatory elements of Anlage 3 (zu §§ 14, 28 BFSG): description of the service, compliance status, applied standards (EN 301 549 / WCAG), feedback contact and the competent market surveillance authority (pre-filled with the central German MLBF). Pages are generated as drafts in the languages you choose — you review, adjust and publish.

Private by design

  • All checks run locally in PHP on your server (WordPress HTML API)
  • No cloud service, no account, no API keys, no external requests
  • No personal data is collected or transmitted
  • Scan results live in your own database and are fully removed on uninstall

Honest scope

Automated tests can detect roughly a third of WCAG issues — the ones visible in markup. A green light means “no machine-detectable problems”, not legal conformity. The plugin clearly marks which findings need a human decision, and the statement generator is a template aid, not legal advice.

Who is this for?

  • Online shops and service businesses in the EU that fall under the BFSG/EAA
  • Agencies preparing client sites for accessibility requirements
  • Anyone who wants a fast, private accessibility health check without another SaaS subscription
