Do the Mopinion feedback forms comply with WCAG guidelines?

The Mopinion web and email feedback forms comply with the WCAG2.1-AA guidelines of the W3C. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is an internationally recognised technical standard that ‘makes web content more accessible to people with disabilities’. In this article, you will find more information on how to add and fine-tune WCAG styling to your feedback forms.

Creating ‘WCAG-proof’ Feedback Forms

In your feedback form, under ‘Design’>'Form', switch the toggle ‘Add WCAG Styling’ on. With this option turned on your forms will automatically get the correct level of contrast. Screenreaders will correctly read forms aloud. Additionally, you can modify the color and style of the tab-focus.

What are the WCAG Guidelines?

The twelve guidelines included in the WCAG are organised under four principles: perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust – all of which enable users with disabilities to use the web content.

Under these principles, some guidelines must be followed by WCAG-compliant software companies:

• Perceivable: Content must be perceivable (e.g. providing text alternatives for any non-text content)

• Operable: User interface (UI) and navigation must be operable (e.g. making all functionality available from a keyboard)

• Understandable: Information and operation of the user interface must be understandable (e.g. text content must be readable and easy to understand)

• Robust: Robust content and reliable interpretation (e.g. content is compatible with current and future user agents – including assistive technologies)
