Unlike generic (international WCAG) accessibility checkers, Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA is built specifically around the French accessibility standard (RGAA 4.1.2, DINUM methodology), useful for any organization subject to the digital accessibility obligation — public sector, and increasingly the private sector too since the scope was extended in June 2025. #### What the free version does An automatic scan runs while you write, with alerts directly on the relevant blocks and a summary panel: * **Images** — missing or generic alt text, guided decorative/informative question * **Structure** — heading level skips, duplicate H1, hand-typed lists instead of a real List block * **Links** — unclear labels (“click here”), empty links * **Tables** — missing headers * **Forms** — fields without a label (custom HTML block) * **Colors** — insufficient text/background contrast (custom colors and theme palette colors) * **Frames** — iframes without a title * **Multimedia** — videos without captions, transcript reminder for audio * **Consultation** — reminder to check the accessibility of attached office documents( PDF, Word…) * **Presentation** — uppercase text used as styling instead of real semantic emphasis Each checked post feeds a dashboard in the admin area, showing the number of points to fix per piece of content. #### Pro version (separate add-on) Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA Pro is a paid add-on, **distributed outside of WordPress.org** (see [assistantrgaa.baptistedumouchel.fr](https://assistantrgaa.baptistedumouchel.fr)): multi-page audit of the actually published site, accessibility statement draft, scheduled automatic audits with email alerts. This free plugin remains fully functional and useful without it. #### What this plugin is NOT Let’s be clear: Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA **does not certify RGAA conformity**. An official RGAA audit requires evaluating the 106 criteria of the standard on a representative sample of pages, following a precise methodology, including checks that cannot technically be automated (semantic relevance, real keyboard navigation, site-wide navigation consistency). This plugin is a writing assistant that reduces the most frequent errors upstream — not a substitute for an audit performed by a competent person. This plugin does not contact any external service: the scan runs entirely in your browser. ## Screenshots [⌊Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA panel in the editor, showing detected issues by theme⌉⌊Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA panel in the editor, showing detected issues by theme⌉[ Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA panel in the editor, showing detected issues by theme [⌊Guided question displayed directly under the relevant block⌉⌊Guided question displayed directly under the relevant block⌉[ Guided question displayed directly under the relevant block [⌊Admin dashboard with the summary per post⌉⌊Admin dashboard with the summary per post⌉[ Admin dashboard with the summary per post ## Installation 1. Install and activate the plugin through the WordPress plugin directory, or by uploading the .zip file 2. Open the editor for a post or page: the “Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA” panel appears automatically (shield icon at the top right of the editor) 3. Check the “Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA” menu in the admin area for an overview of your content ## FAQ ### Does this plugin certify that my site is RGAA compliant? No. It helps you avoid the most frequent errors while writing, and gives a starting point for an audit — it does not replace a full RGAA audit performed by a person competent in accessibility. ### What’s the difference with a generic (WCAG) accessibility checker? Generic WCAG checkers don’t cover the specifics of the French standard (RGAA test methodology, the legally required accessibility statement format in France). Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA is built specifically around this standard. ### Does the plugin slow down the editor? The scan runs with a short delay after each change (not on every keystroke), and runs entirely in the browser: no network call for the content scan. ### Do I have to pay to use this plugin? No, this plugin is entirely free and unlimited. Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA Pro (multi-page audit, accessibility statement, scheduled audits) is a separate paid add-on, distributed outside of WordPress.org. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Baptd Accessibility Checks for RGAA” is open source software.
