Accessibility

Automatically improve the accessibility of your Shopware shop and reduce common barriers for visitors who, for example, use screen readers or the keyboard to navigate. With BFSG Accessibility for Shopware 6 , numerous common vulnerabilities are corrected directly in the front end – without you having to manually edit individual templates or spend time configuring the plugin.

Automatic improvements on every storefront page

Once activated, the plugin runs automatically in the background. Among other things, it adds missing image descriptions, improves the labelling of form fields and control elements, corrects problematic ARIA markup and optimises keyboard navigation. A visible focus indicator helps users recognise at any time which element is currently selected. Dynamically reloaded content is also automatically taken into account.

Reducing barriers with minimal effort

The plugin is ideal as a technical aid to automatically reduce common accessibility barriers in the Shopware storefront. However, it does not replace an individual assessment of your shop to ensure full accessibility or compliance with legal requirements.

Note: Automatically generated labels and text are currently displayed in German only.
