 * Hello!
    I would like to ask how can i modify the form to be accessible ready.
   Can i just make changes to the forms right from wordpress or do i have to change
   the code somehow?
 * Thank you!

 * What accessibility issues do you see and in which part and how do you want to
   modify it?

 * For the button Submit for example there is no alt text when we use the “read 
   page” function from the userway plug-in.
 * As a result someone who only hears can’t see the button and he doesn’t know how
   to proceed.

 * Sorry, I don’t get this part. What does this “userway plug-in” mean?

 * Can I check the website you see the issues? Maybe that’ll be quicker.

 * I mean that we use this plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/userway-accessibility-widget/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/userway-accessibility-widget/)
   that supports “read page” (voice that reads text) for persons that can’t read
   the content of the site or they have problems with their vision. That’s why they
   hear it and proceed with their options (where to press enter).

 * Thanks. I’ve just downloaded the plugin and installed into my local testing site,
   but haven’t yet succeeded in making it read a label for an element; it only reads
   the type of field and the current text content. I’ll look into it further. Please
   let me know if there is detailed information about the plugin.

 * An Update**
 * We used **Contact Form 7: Accessible Defaults** plugin and it helped with the
   crusial errors for another website we run.
 * But still on the potential errors we have many problems… I suppose it is an issue
   of the main code…
 * You can check the alternative website with achecker to see [https://www.panagiotopouloucrysa.gr](https://www.panagiotopouloucrysa.gr)
