Hi @kh0309,
Are you still seeing the admin notice that the website is password protected? Also, are you using any type of page builder? There could be issues with older versions of PHP as well.
With the Accessibility Checker plugin installed, you can go to the plugin’s settings page and check ‘Delete Data’. When you deactivate and uninstall the plugin it will delete all data associated with the plugin including the database tables.
You could also drop the accessibility-checker database tables manually but there will be some data left behind in the options table. Just as a note if you decide to delete the table manually create a backup first.
Hi @josetraslabarra,
I’ve released a fix for this. Please update to the latest version 1.3.16. Let me know if you are still having issues after updating.
Thanks,
Steve
Hi @josetraslabarra,
I just did a tests and I’m seeing the same issue. Let me see if I can fix that and push out and update real quick.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I’ll keep you posted.
Hi @kh0309,
It was nice seeing your WordCamp Birmingham!
The issue you’re seeing is due to the plugin being blocked from scanning the page. This is typically due to a security plugin (which I don’t see you have installed), the web server blocking the file_get_contents() PHP function, or an SSL issue.
It looks like you might be running this on local environment. It that true? I would first try to disable SSL verification using this filter. It can be added to your themes functions.php file. It’s not recommended to use this filter on a production site as it could be a security issue. But it might be good to do it temporarily to check if it is in fact an SSL issue. If it doesn’t work please follow up on this ticket.
add_filter( 'edac_no_verify_ssl', '__return_true' );Hi @swmarlow
This has been fixed with version 1.3.13. Unfortunately, you’ll need to deactivate the Accessibility Checker plugin first before updating it. Once updated you can activate it. This should fix the conflict with updating other plugins. Let me know if you have any issues.
Looking into this right now. I’ll keep you posted.
Marking this as resolved due to inactivity. If you require additional help please open a new support thread.

@stephud, iThemes can block Accessibility Checker from scanning the site if Ban Users is enabled. You can read more about it here https://github.com/equalizedigital/accessibility-checker/issues/66#issuecomment-1366885412
Also, we’ve had reports that Disable PHP in Plugins can cause conflicts as well. Read more here: https://github.com/equalizedigital/accessibility-checker/issues/66#issue-1466642207
@oldrup If you have access to another install on the same server you could check to see if the issue is there as well. It’s may be an issue at the server level. You could contact your host to see if the PHP function file_get_contents is being blocked.
@oldrup, I’ll look at making that notice dismissible. As for why it’s showing is because the plugin isn’t able to access the frontend of your website to scan the HTML for accessibility issues. Having password protection enabled or a maintenance plugin is usually the issue but it can be other things like security plugins or the PHP function file_get_contents being blocked at the server level. Do you have a security plugin like iThemes Security Pro installed?
I’m glad the fix worked for you @dsogawa. Yes, the paid version will allow for scanning custom posts types plus many other features such as full site scanning and managing issues at a site wide level. If you have any questions please reach out to us. Thanks!
@dsogawa, If you update to version 1.3.9 you can bypass the SSL validation by adding this filter to your functions.php file.
add_filter( 'edac_no_verify_ssl', '__return_true' );Let me know if that solves the issues you listed above.
It may have just needed a post to be saved or the page to be refreshed. If you have any other issue feel free to open a new issue.
