 * We use your plugin, and we’re getting this error on accessibilitychecker
 * Critical Issues (1): Here are the failed elements that were found. These are 
   all related to WCAG level AA – the suggested level for organizations.
    # Cognitive
   issue
 * Buttons do not have an accessible name
 * 1. Failing elements
    <button type=”submit” class=”wpr_submit”> 2. in plain words
   When a button does not have an accessible name, screen readers and other assistive
   technologies announce it as “button”, which provides no information to users 
   about what the button does.
 * #
    3. WHOM DOES THIS AFFECT? People who use screen readers, including the blind
   and visually impaired
 * #
    4. HOW TO SOLVE IT: Option 1 – Do it yourself: For buttons with visible labels,
   add text content to the button element. Make the label a clear call to action.
   For example: <button>Book room</button>
 * For buttons without visible labels, like icon buttons, use the aria-label attribute
   to clearly describe the action to anyone using an assistive technology.
