About the plugin

About WBP Accessibility

A WordPress plugin that scans every page for real accessibility issues, gives editors a live checklist inside the block editor, and lets you fix issues at the source instead of hiding them behind a widget.

WBP Accessibility is a first-class citizen inside the WP Bulk Publishing ecosystem. It ships as an installable WordPress plugin, exposes REST endpoints under its own namespace, and shares user, credit, telemetry, and entitlement plumbing with the parent runtime — so it never becomes a silo.

Every capability is documented, versioned, and gated by WordPress capabilities. You can run it in isolation, or connect it to the rest of the WBP suite for compounding value across content, SEO, publishing, and revenue.

The problem

Why the default workflow breaks down

01

Overlays are not accessibility

Bolt-on accessibility widgets get sued, not credited. Real compliance means fixing content at the source.

02

Consent is a mess

Every jurisdiction has different rules. Copy-pasted cookie banners don't cover you legally and infuriate visitors.

03

Data requests take days

GDPR/CCPA data-subject requests arrive as email — and get handled by hand, badly. One missed request is a big fine.

04

Third-party plugin risk

Every new plugin can regress accessibility, privacy, or security. Nobody re-audits after each release.

05

Documentation for auditors doesn't exist

When an auditor asks how your consent flow works, you have screenshots and hope. That's not a defense.

06

Franken-stack tool fatigue

Most teams stitch together 3–5 disconnected tools to do what WBP Accessibility does out of the box. Managing that stack becomes a second full-time job.

Auditable by default

Structured logging surfaces every configuration change and every automated action for compliance and post-incident review.

Access control

Role-based permissions for every team

Administrator

Full access to configure, install, and manage WBP Accessibility.

Editor / Manager

Use the day-to-day workflows without touching site-wide settings.

Author / Contributor

Restricted access to their own work; cannot change global rules or connected services.

Custom roles

Every capability is mappable, so you can build tightly scoped roles for clients or offshore teams.

FAQ

Questions? We've been asked before.

Do I need any other plugin to use WBP Accessibility?

WBP Accessibility runs standalone. When you install the WP Bulk Publishing parent runtime as well, it unlocks shared credits, telemetry, and cross-plugin signals — but nothing is force-bundled.

Will it slow down my site?

Front-end code is loaded conditionally on the templates that actually need it, and heavy work runs on background queues rather than blocking the request. Core Web Vitals stay green.

Can I use it on multiple sites?

Yes. Plans are site-based with per-plan seat counts, and you can push settings from a parent site to child sites via the WP Empire Controller.

Is my data ever sent to third parties?

Only when you explicitly authorize an external service (an AI provider, a webhook, a CDN, etc.). Core functionality is fully local by default.

How do I get support?

Every WBP plugin ships with documentation, an in-plugin support widget, and email + community support on paid tiers.

What are the technical requirements?

WBP Accessibility needs WordPress 5.0+, PHP 7.4+, and MySQL 5.7+ (or MariaDB 10.3+). Full multisite support is built in.

Can I extend it with my own code?

Yes. WBP Accessibility exposes REST endpoints under wbp/wbp-accessibility/v1 and a full set of WordPress action and filter hooks under the wbp_accessibility_ prefix.
