Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records BarrierForge — Accessibility Scanner version 1.0.7 as active, updated 18d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
BarrierForge scans the rendered front end of your WordPress site for common accessibility barriers. Results appear in a filterable Fix Queue with severity, WCAG level, affected elements, page links, and suggested next steps.
BarrierForge includes:
Rendered-page scanning for up to 250 published public posts and pages.
Checks for missing image alt attributes, empty links and buttons, generic link text, positive tabindex values, skipped heading levels, text contrast, and small touch targets.
WCAG level and success-criterion references for each supported check.
Administrator-only links that locate and highlight affected elements on the front end.
Manual review and remediation tracking for small touch targets; unsafe automatic touch-target resizing is disabled.
Opt-in sitewide enhancements for page language, a keyboard skip link, and visible keyboard focus.
Remediation history and progress reporting that distinguishes open and resolved findings.
Automated testing finds only some accessibility barriers. BarrierForge does not guarantee conformance with WCAG or any law, and it does not replace manual testing or testing with people with disabilities.
