Theme check
Is Online clothing store accessible?
No automated check can say that a theme is accessible. Here is what one found: on October 28, 2026, our check of Online clothing store 1.2.0 on its WordPress.org preview found 42 accessibility problems in the theme's own parts (its header, menus, footer and layout), 16 of them serious or critical.
We make Fixlight, a free WordPress plugin that fixes some of these problems, so we're not neutral. The measurements below are what our check found; anyone can repeat it with the same method.
What the check found
| Problem | Impact | Times | WCAG | Free Fixlight plugin fixes it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Images without alt text | Critical | 6 | 1.1.1 | Yes |
| Buttons with no text | Critical | 1 | 4.1.2 | Yes |
| Text with too little contrast | Serious | 5 | 1.4.3 | No, needs a person |
| Links with no text | Serious | 4 | 2.4.4 | Yes |
| Content outside the page regions | Moderate | 19 | Best practice | No, needs a person |
| Heading levels skip | Moderate | 3 | 1.3.1 | No, needs a person |
| Page has no main content region | Moderate | 1 | Best practice | No, needs a person |
| Page regions that cannot be told apart | Moderate | 1 | Best practice | No, needs a person |
| Zoom is blocked on phones | Moderate | 1 | 1.4.4 | Yes |
| No "Skip to content" link | Moderate | 1 | 2.4.1 | No, needs a person |
How we checked: One page, the theme's home page on WordPress.org's preview (wp-themes.com), which shows the same sample posts for every theme. It was loaded in a real browser and checked with axe-core's WCAG 2.2 A and AA rules and its best practices. Problems inside the sample posts are not counted against the theme, except colour problems its styling causes. Automated checks find many problems, but not all of them. Your site, with your own content, settings and plugins, will give different results. Online clothing store may have changed since October 28, 2026.
How to fix them
- Images without alt text. Describe what the image shows in one short sentence. Use the Images screen to add alt text in bulk, or mark purely decorative images as decorative.
- Buttons with no text. Fixlight names common icon buttons automatically. For the rest, add an aria-label that says what the button does.
- Text with too little contrast. Make the text darker or the background lighter until the contrast ratio is at least 4.5:1 (3:1 for large text). Change it in your theme's colour settings so it applies everywhere.
- Links with no text. Fixlight names social and common icon links automatically. For the rest, add alt text to the image inside the link or an aria-label to the link.
- Content outside the page regions. This usually comes from the theme or a page builder section. Put page content inside the main area, or ask your theme developer to add header, main and footer regions.
- Heading levels skip. Choose heading levels by structure, not by size: one level 1 for the page title, level 2 for sections, level 3 inside them. Change the size with styling instead.
- Page has no main content region. Use a page template that wraps the content in a <main> element. Blank page builder templates often leave it out.
- Page regions that cannot be told apart. When two regions of the same kind exist (two navigation menus, for example), give each a different aria-label.
- Zoom is blocked on phones. Fixlight fixes this automatically by removing user-scalable=no and maximum-scale from the viewport tag.
- No "Skip to content" link. Fixlight adds the link automatically when it can find the main content area. If it cannot, wrap your content in a <main> element.
What the free Fixlight plugin does here
Of these, the free plugin fixes images without alt text, buttons with no text, links with no text, zoom is blocked on phones on its own, in the HTML the site sends, with no widget. The rest (text with too little contrast, content outside the page regions, heading levels skip, page has no main content region, page regions that cannot be told apart, no "skip to content" link) need a change in the theme's settings or code.
