Accessibility Options in MetaSlider

The MetaSlider team works hard to make sure the plugin is accessible for people using screen readers and/or people with disabilities.

If you see any way that we can improve our support for accessible users, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us.


Core Accessibility Features #

The main MetaSlider plugin provides accessibility features that do not require you to configure any settings. One key feature is our use of ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) which defines define ways to make the web more accessible.

MetaSlider uses aria-roledescription and aria-label. Screen readers can use this to identify why an element is on the website and what it does. Mozilla has good introductions to aria-roledescription and aria-label. This screenshot below shows an example of that code in the MetaSlider output for a slideshow.
