Common questions about Editoria11y Accessibility Checker

Editoria11y is...spellcheck: a seamless, automatic and intuitive integration for content authoring. It:

Displays results inline Checks live while you type Eschews obfuscation and techno-legal jargon. It explains what the issue is in plain language, with a simple explanation of how to fix it. "This image needs alternative text" with a short explanation of what alternative text is makes sense without prior technical knowledge; "Failure of WCAG 1.1.1 Level A: Non-text Content" does not. Deliberately excludes (or splits by role) tests for theme and plugin issues, like invalid HTML tags and ARIA attributes. Testing is critically important for themers and developers, but it is work for themers and developers, not content editors. For ongoing quality assurance, Editoria11y provides people with a tool that fits their role, so they only receive alerts for things they can fix. Most other tools check on crawl, often weeks or months later, asking you to remember to visit a dashboard with a complex interface. Note that this is a difference, not a clear superiority: crawler tools have access to much more processing power than an inline checker, which lets them run more obscure and complex tests, and monitor non-WordPress sites. Many Editoria11y users also pay for a crawler for annual, cross-site trend monitoring.

The Editoria11y and Sa11y maintainers co-develop their test suite, so the backend testing library is actually identical. The look, feel and features are quite different, though. At a high level: Sa11y for WordPress provides a simple plugin wrapper: Tests are per-page; there are no site reports. Tests only display on view/preview, not while editing. Dismissals are individual; there is no dismissal sync API. All tests are enabled for all users -- that means more tests at a free tier, but also means content editors see developer errors. The roadmap is effectively complete: new tests will be added as we expand the library, but server-side features are not planned. Editoria11y for WordPress provides extensive WordPress integration Editors receive feedback as they type, while editing. Findings are synchronized to a site-wide reporting dashboard. Manual-checks marked as "OK" are dismissed for all users. Multisite network management allows propagation of both site defaults and site overrides. CSA members have a custom test wizard. CSA members have a crawler. CSA members can split tests by role. Funding from the CSA project means the roadmap includes many new features: link checking, PDF checking, preflight checkpoints, score and score history, multisite monitoring are likely to land in 2026 and 2027.

Overlays are scripts that make untested modifications to your site's themes and content, claiming these automated changes will better meet the accessibility needs of your users. Overlays may do things like override your theme's font sizes or colors, or modify its heading tags and buttons. This differs from buttons that make potentially the exact same changes to a specific site -- the key difference is in whether the button has been tested with that specific theme, or attempts to work in any context without testing. You should familiarize yourself with the assistive technology compatibility problems untested overlays may introduce before assuming these changes will be helpful, as any untested code can break existing accessibility features or introduce new invisible errors. If you choose to install an overlay, you should test each of its features on your site using assistive tools or pay for a professional accessibility test. Editoria11y is not an overlay. It does not modify the site viewed by not-logged-in-users in any way. It is an editor-facing testing tool that helps your site editors create accessible content that does not need an overlay.
