Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Germany’s Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG) is now in effect. 1 Level AA face fines up to 100,000 EUR.

CheckBarriere shows you where your shop stands in 2 minutes — and exactly what to fix to become compliant.

How it works

  • Scan — One click starts the automatic BFSG check of your shop
  • Understand — The traffic-light indicator shows instantly: green (compliant), yellow (partial) or red (non-compliant)
  • Act — Every violation comes with concrete recommendations in German
  • Prove — Compliant shops receive a frontend badge that builds customer trust

Features

  • BFSG Traffic Light — See at a glance if your shop is compliant
  • Automatic Scan — Check your shop directly from the WordPress admin
  • Actionable Reports — All violations with German descriptions and fix suggestions
  • WooCommerce Integration — Automatically detects shop, cart, checkout and product pages
  • Compliance Badge — Show your customers that your shop is accessible
  • Daily Auto-Scan — Continuously monitors your shop for new issues
  • WCAG 2.1 Level AA — The standard required by the BFSG

Who is this plugin for?

  • WooCommerce shop owners who need to comply with the BFSG
  • Agencies checking client shops for accessibility
  • Any WordPress site owner who takes accessibility seriously

External Service

This plugin connects to the CheckBarriere API to perform accessibility scans. The scanning is done on external servers because it requires a real browser engine (Playwright) to render and analyze pages — this cannot be done locally within WordPress. All scan results returned by the service are displayed in full within the plugin.

  • Terms of Service
  • Privacy Policy

The free plan scans up to 5 pages. For more pages, auto-monitoring and PDF export, see Starter and Pro plans.
