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.

Overview

About this plugin

Siftra runs a free accessibility scan of your published pages by reading the HTML they send, and tells you what to change.

Nothing is added to your front end: no overlay, no widget, no script. There is no account to create, and nothing leaves your database.

And it ends with something you can use: an accessibility statement, with the known limitations from the last scan already filled in. That is the document you hand to a client.

What it does

  • Scans up to 50 of your published pages by default, five at a time, in the background. You can raise the limit to 300 before you start.
  • Reports nine kinds of problem that automated testing can actually decide from the markup: missing image descriptions (alt text), unlabeled form fields, broken heading order, “click here” links, missing page language, empty buttons and links, tables without header cells, untitled iframes, and media that plays by itself.
  • Shows the page, the element, the WCAG criterion, and the fix for every finding. No vague “12 issues found”.
  • Includes a free, unlimited accessibility statement generator. Where the European Accessibility Act (EAA) applies, it asks for a published statement and a feedback channel.

What it does not do

  • No overlay widget, and no automatic rewriting of your pages. The plugin reports what it finds on each element; you decide what to change.
  • No “one-click fix” and no “AI makes your site compliant”. Automated testing cannot make that promise, and this plugin does not make it.
  • No account, no email, no usage data, no third-party requests.
  • No claim of compliance. A clean scan means the nine automated checks passed. It does not mean your site is accessible, and the plugin says so in the report and in every generated statement.

Who it is for

Site owners and small agencies who want to know what is wrong before they pay anyone for an audit. The aim is to stop guessing, not to wait for a complaint.

In the EU, the European Accessibility Act has applied since June 2025. In the US, Section 508 covers federal agencies, and Seyfarth Shaw counted 3,117 website accessibility lawsuits in federal court in 2025, up 27% from 2024.

Four of the six problems cited most often in those lawsuits are covered by the nine checks: missing alt text, unlabeled form fields, empty links and buttons, and missing page language.
