## Description

Audit Lens scans the content of your published posts and pages and reports the accessibility
issues a screen-reader user or keyboard user would actually hit. It focuses on the“
WebAIM Million top 6” — the issue families behind roughly 96% of all automatically
detected WCAG failures — and explains each one in plain English, with the page it
is on and the WCAG success criterion it relates to.

It is built to be honest. Automated tools only catch part of the picture — roughly
30–40% of real accessibility issues. Audit Lens tells you that up front, labels 
what it found, and helps you fix it. It does **not** certify compliance, it is **
not** an accessibility overlay, and it never modifies how your site looks to visitors.

**What it checks (the WebAIM Million top 6):**

 * **Images missing alt text** — images a screen reader cannot describe (WCAG 1.1.1)
 * **Form fields without labels** — inputs people cannot identify (WCAG 1.3.1)
 * **Links with no readable text** — links whose destination is unclear (WCAG 2.4.4)
 * **Buttons with no label** — controls announced as nothing (WCAG 4.1.2)
 * **Low colour contrast** — text that may be hard to read, flagged for review (
   WCAG 1.4.3)
 * **Page language not set** — documents with no language (WCAG 3.1.1)

**What you get:**

 * **A transparent 0–100 score** — a simple, documented summary weighted by severity.
   100 means no automated issues were detected — not a compliance grade
 * **Per-page breakdown** — worst-scoring pages first, with direct links to edit
   them in context
 * **Errors vs. warnings, clearly separated** — high-confidence problems are marked
   as errors; things that need a human’s eye (like contrast against a real background)
   are marked as warnings
 * **Bulk alt-text helper** — list media-library images missing alt text and add
   descriptions inline
 * **Standalone contrast checker** — test any two colours for WCAG AA pass/fail
 * **Honest accessibility statement generator** — publish a statement that records
   the standard you are working towards and how visitors can report barriers, without
   overclaiming
 * **CSV export** of the full report

#### Honest by design

Audit Lens reports issues so you can fix them. It does not, and cannot, certify 
that a site meets WCAG or any law — that needs manual review by a person. An overlay
that promises instant “compliance” is the opposite of what this tool is. Audit Lens
supports your accessibility efforts; it does not replace human testing.

#### No third-party services

All scanning happens on your own server against your own content. No data is sent
anywhere, and there is no network call required to scan.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate the plugin.
 2. In the WordPress admin menu, open the top-level **Audit Lens** menu.
 3. Run a scan — Audit Lens checks your published content and reports the accessibility
    issues it finds. It does not fix them for you, and it never claims your site is
    compliant.
 4. While editing a post or page, watch for the live accessibility markers Audit Lens
    shows inline in the block editor, and export the accessibility report as CSV when
    you need to share it.
 5. Use the findings as a starting point for real accessibility work, including manual
    review by a person.

## FAQ

### Does this make my site WCAG or ADA compliant?

No. No tool can. Automated checks catch only part of the issues, so a person still
has to review the site. Audit Lens finds and reports issues and helps you fix them—
it never certifies compliance and is not an overlay.

### What content is scanned?

The rendered content of your published posts, pages and public custom post types.
Content inside widgets, theme templates or page-builder-only fields is outside the
scan.

### Why are some issues “warnings” instead of “errors”?

Warnings are findings that need a human to confirm — for example, low colour contrast,
which depends on the real background a static scan cannot always see. Errors are
high-confidence problems. They are shown separately so you know what to trust.

### Does it change my content?

Only when you explicitly ask it to — the alt-text helper saves alt text you type,
and the statement generator creates a page. The scan itself is read-only.
