BeTheme accassible for handicapped people

amtenbrink

Hi,
we ar working on a website for an association for handicapped people.
Are there any options to make the theme barrier-free? Or are you maybe thinking about making it accessible with future updates?
For example making the menu navigationable with the keyboard?
Thank you!

Hello,

this is a very good idea, thank you! What else should there be on this kind of page, besides the menu that can be navigated by keyboard.

We will take it into consideration and try to implement it in the future.

thanks

Hi,
that sounds great, thank you!

I think there are a lot of things to care about, but by now i only know three more things, which are important for accessibility:

• option to change the size of text
  
• option to read the text on the site (for blind people)
• option to change the contrasts of the site

The w3c gives terms of references and technical guidance:

Thank you!

Hi,

maybe there is one more thing, concerning the headings. They
are talking about 'skipped headings', which causes problems for
navigating the website with the keyboard.
I'm not sure, maybe this is s.th. you could consider for future updates?
Here is a screenshot of our website, tested with this site: http://wave.webaim.org/

Thanks!
