Description

This plugin has been devised, developed, tested and supported by a mixed team of people with recognized DISABILITY, and helped by people without it, thus generating inclusive employment. If you want to know more about Inclusive Studio, visit their website https://estudioinclusivo.com

The Plugin PAU is a module or plugin for WordPress, which allows you to implement universal accessibility tools for the cognitive, auditory and visual profiles on the web, without the need to know programming.

Give your website pictograms, audios and sign language. It’s displayed on the web as a panel organised by profiles and types of aid. When entering them, the different functions that each one has are displayed, and can be chosen by the user according to his need.

The plugin already comes with preloaded hotspots with sign language, pictograms and voices in 3 languages (English, Spanish and Catalan) that are common in all non-commercial websites. You just have to assign them, visually, and without touching any code.

You will have it implemented a demo in 1 minute, follow this guide “Plug & Go” step by step.
