Review The Plugin Stack
Cookie banners, popups, reviews, subscriptions, filters, live chat, and payment plugins can each create accessibility issues.
Each plugin update should be treated as a possible change to keyboard behavior, focus management, and screen reader output.
Checkout Priorities
Make labels visible and programmatic.
Ensure coupon fields, error messages, shipping methods, and payment choices are reachable by keyboard.
Test the checkout in mobile and desktop viewports.
Maintenance Plan
Schedule quarterly automated scans, annual manual audits, and fast reviews after major plugin or theme changes.
Frequently asked questions
Is WooCommerce automatically accessible?
No. WooCommerce can support accessible stores, but the real outcome depends on the theme, plugins, custom code, and content practices.
What should I test first?
Start with the buying path: home page, category page, product page, cart, checkout, account creation, and order confirmation.
