Accessibility Widget for website for ADA compliance. Make websites available to every user using the web and ensures your site is fully compliant with ADA and WCAG 2.1 guidelines.
Hi @user1100, that’s a very good suggestion, thank you for sharing!
We actually have such a widget in mind, this is how we see it as yet: ADA Compliant Widget - Embed an Accessibility Tool on Your Website (2024).
Feel free to tell us what features you need in this widget, we’ll be happy to discuss the options!

No, no, no! There are already widgets that claim to make your site compliant. They do not and in fact attract vulture attorneys because they know that’s not all you need. NO WIDGET can make a site compliant. Don’t even try. Instead, Elfsight, please make your own widgets WCAG compliant!! We are having to remove them because the ones we use are not. And sadly, as we remove them, so goes a lot of the really cool functionality we have that really adds to the customer experience.

@Kelli, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts!
I’m really sorry to hear that our widgets do not fully meet the requirements for your use case, and you even have to remove them.
Kelli, would it be an option for you to contact our Support Team? They’ll be happy to check your widgets and see what can be done with the compliance situation.
And yes, many thanks for your feedback, I’ve already shared it with the team so that they have some food for thought
Our website is primarily for older adults, a population that faces more medical challenges as they age. Our customers are asking for this Accessibility feature, which makes it easier to read the website.
For me, this is a critical need. I purchased another plugin from another developer, but it interferes with Google Translate (it creates a 2nd call to Google Translate). I am hoping Elfsight creates this plugin and that it does not interfere with other plugins. Thank you. I love Elfsight.
Hi @Lisa_JL 
Thank you so much for such a thorough comment!
I totally understand your point and agree that this feature is really important, especially for elderly people.
We’ll try our best to consider it in our future updates. All the news will be posted in this thread 
It is nice exploring other available products here, and of course as a full package subscriber with elfsight It would be nice to have it possible to accommodate these violations which can be threatened.
These two providers (Audio Eye and Accessibe) are a great example of all the control that could be given to clients. Everyone needs something different but I love the idea of having a convert the page to text only, having it be read, and even make it to dyslexia font.
Would be very appreciated!
Hi @Rev_Devan
Your feedback is highly appreciated, many thanks for sharing your examples with us 
Hi,
I came across two solutions for accessibility that I thought I should share with Elfsight:
accessibe. com
fouita. com/widgets/accessibility-tools
Accessibility is now the new standard for all websites.
I hope this helps.

Michael, I would not rely on that: https://commlawgroup.com/2024/accessibe-faces-class-action-lawsuit-over-alleged-misrepresentation-of-ada-compliance-and-ai-accessibility-capabilities/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR2HupAIZKB4zYRkQ19flens-bJSjypimQpBNgnpx1E8g2tlOTuMx4p9qAc_aem_fYw874dpQ6-6hayH8tyOZA

I created this post for showing a list of Elfsight widgets that are already accessible, or at least that is what we are told. It would be best to have Elfsight creat a similar reply in this thread if it can be anchored to the top.
I will close my post or just post it here in this thread after Elfsight responds regarding the best way to do this. We need a list and a timeline is why. Which Elfsight plugins are now ADA (WCAG) compliant?

Hi @Kelli
As Helga mentioned in this thread, our widgets are not fully ADA-compliant out of the box.
The thing is that ADA compliance requirements can vary by country, which makes universal compliance quite challenging.
However, our developers will be happy to adjust the widgets according to your requirements if it’s possible.
So, if you have any specific ideas for the improvement of ADA compliance in your widget, just share them in this thread and we’ll try to consider them
Hello!!!

Hey there, @Yannis_Agelidis
Thank you for the feedback!
Glad to say that the Accessibility widget is already on the Wishlist! I’ve moved your comment to the related thread, where we’ll keep you updated
Hey everyone!
Just to clear up any confusion in this thread, we wanted to make a quick note.
This topic is specifically for a separate Accessibility widget. If you’re looking to make our existing apps more accessible, jump into this thread, vote on it and share your ideas

Most overlay that say they are compliant are not, we had a long hard look at them. We asked experts in accessibility, and all say the same thing. If you want to improve the accessibility of your site, skip the widgets and consider doing proper HTML and color contrast, it doesn’t take much.
