Theme check
Is Prime Shopping Cart accessible?
No automated check can say that a theme is accessible. Here is what one found: on October 28, 2026, our check of Prime Shopping Cart 1.0.1 on its WordPress.org preview found 5 accessibility problems in the theme's own parts (its header, menus, footer and layout), 0 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Content outside the page regions | Moderate | 3 | Best practice | No, needs a person |
| Page regions that cannot be told apart | Moderate | 1 | Best practice | No, needs a person |
| No "Skip to content" link | Moderate | 1 | 2.4.1 | No, needs a person |
The check also found 1 problem inside the sample posts themselves (heading levels skip). Those come from WordPress.org's sample content, which is the same for every theme, so they're not counted here.
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. Prime Shopping Cart may have changed since October 28, 2026.
How to fix them
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
None of these is one the free plugin fixes on its own: they need a change in the theme's settings or code. Fixlight lists them with the steps, and it also adds things automated checks don't flag, such as a skip link and visible keyboard focus, where a theme lacks them.
