Question re ADA

Hi @cynderella,

Thanks for reaching out! By ADA, I assume you mean “Americans with Disabilities Act”, right?

First, and as a disclaimer, let me say that this answer does not, and is not intended to, constitute legal advice; instead, it is just our understanding of what ADA compliance means for a website.

Now, considering that it’s not at all clear how or even if ADA rules will be applied to any particular website, I guess the short answer to your question is no.

However, we do plan to include the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) to our code. So, for instance, we will make all hyperlinks have a descriptive anchor text. But there is little more we can do on our code in that regard. Fonts and colors are set by your theme or can be customized with our author box editor. Media content is handled by WordPress and it is you who should provide alt tags and descriptions.

Sure, we will have all those three aspects in mind to make author box’s code accessible too. We are not working on this yet, so it will take some time to get it done.

Thanks @cynderella
