Deze plugin **is niet getest met de laatste 3 grotere versies van WordPress**. Mogelijk
wordt het niet meer onderhouden of ondersteund. Ook kunnen er compatibiliteitsproblemen
ontstaan wanneer het wordt gebruikt met recentere versies van WordPress.

## Beschrijving

This plugin offers you the possibility to show people accessibility configurations
in your menu. This means that everyone, including people with disabilities, will
be able to configure the settings (contrast, font-size, coloration, …) that help
them be able to use your website.

Here is a [demo](https://demo.wpinclusion.com/a11y-kit).
 Follow the evolution of
the plugin trough the [Github repository](https://github.com/multimedianj/a11y-kit).

In order to make the plugin works, you need to create a menu first.
 In your menu,
you simply need to add a CSS class in this way **“wpak_DISABILITY_PROPERTY”**.

Where to add the CSS class mentioned above ?
 – In the menu you’re in (Appearance
> Menus > name_of_your_menu), you first click on an item you want to have the ability
to change the state (accessibility menu item). – Then, you should have the field“
CSS Classes (optional)”. Inside this field, you can add the class in this way : **“
wpak_DISABILITY_PROPERTY”** (see examples from the pre-configured classes below).–
If the field “CSS Classes (optional)” is not visible, you just have to look for 
the “Screen Options” button in the top-right corner of the page. Then, search for
the checkbox “CSS Classes” which should be checked in order for the field to be 
visible. Finally, return to the field and add your class.

### List of the pre-configured classes

#### Coloration

 * “wpak_color_normal” (normal state)
 * “wpak_color_dark” (dark mode)
 * “wpak_color_monochrome” (shades of gray, monochrome)
 * “wpak_color_highcontrast” (high contrast)
 * “wpak_color_lowsaturation” (low saturation)
 * “wpak_color_highsaturation” (high saturation)

#### Font size

 * “wpak_font_normal” (normal state)
 * “wpak_font_large” (large font-size, default: 30px)

#### Dyslexia

 * “wpak_dyslexia_normal” (normal state)
 * “wpak_dyslexia_comicsans” (Comic Sans font-family)
 * “wpak_dyslexia_arial” (Arial font-family)

#### Reset button

 * “wpakReset” (reset all the filters)

### Add an icon instead of text

You can use the field for the title to add HTML code. With HTML code, it is possible
to add
 – An image: `<img src="link_of_your_image.png" alt="name_of_property" />`–
An icon from FontAwesome or any library you want to include: `<i class="fas fa-adjust"
></i>`

### Suggested FontAwesome icons

Here is a list of the suggested icons to use for each pre-configured accessibility
settings.

 * Coloration: `<i class="fas fa-adjust" title="Change the coloration of the site"
   ></i>`
 * Font-size: `<i class="fas fa-font" title="Change the font-size of the site"></
   i>`
 * Font-family: `<i class="fas fa-pencil-alt" title="Change the font-family of the
   site"></i>`
 * Letter-spacing: `<i class="fas fa-text-width" title="Change the letter-spacing
   of the site"></i>`
 * Line-height: `<i class="fas fa-text-height" title="Change the line-height of 
   the site"></i>`
 * Reset button: `<i class="fas fa-undo" title="Reset all the accessibility configurations"
   ></i>`

#### EXTRA

If you want to add a link to your accessibility statement page, we recommend using
this icon that displays perfectly
 – `<i class="fas fa-child" title="Go to the accessibility
statement page"></i>`

### Import a pre-generated menu

To import a pre-generated menu with already pre-configured accessibility settings,
follow the instructions below.

 1.  First, download the file **menu-a11y.json** on your computer, available in the
     folder **SAMPLE** of the plugin
 2.  Install the plugin **Export Import Menus”, available [here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/export-import-menus)
 3.  Activate the plugin
 4.  Go to **Appearance > Export/Import Menus**
 5.  Click on the tab **Import Menus**
 6.  Click on **Choose a file** and import the **menu-a11y.json** file you just downloaded
     on your computer
 7.  On the **Menu Name** field, feel free to name your menu (ex.: A11y topbar menu)
 8.  Click on the **Import Menus** button
 9.  Validate in **Appearance > Menus** that your menu has been imported correctly

#### EXTRA

If you want to use FontAwesome icons, install the plugin FontAwesome, available 
[here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/font-awesome)

### Overwritte accessibility settings (styles)

In the plugin directory, there’s a file **SAMPLE/style-a11y.css** that contains 
all the CSS variables used to style the different accessibility settings of the 
plugin. It is possible to overwritte those variables by adding this file to the 
root of your theme.

 1. You need to download the **style-a11y.css**
 2. You add the file to the root of your theme (or child-theme)
 3. You add this code to your style.css **@import “style-a11y.css”;**

This plugin was created and is maintained by WP inclusion, a [glossary of Web accessibility terminologies](https://wpinclusion.com).

### Compatibility

This plugin is multilingual ready.

I tried to use this plugin but it needs better instructions. Simply add class “wpak_DISABILITY_PROPERTY”
to what? To where? Not to the menu as there is no place to do that. Please be more
explicit with instructions. Also “Deletion failed:” so there is something wrong 
with the ability to delete the plug from the WordPress site.
