Rank+ – Website Accessibility

Nhật ký thay đổi

1.0.8

• Text reader mode no longer swallows clicks on links, buttons, and form fields, so the page stays fully operable — by mouse and by keyboard — while the reader is switched on.
• The magnifier and the reading focus band now follow keyboard focus as well as the mouse pointer, so keyboard-only and touch visitors can use both.
• The reading focus band dims the page less, so text outside the band stays readable.
• Toolbar text, icons, and the focus ring now pick their own color automatically based on the main color you choose, so they stay readable with any color. A color that no text can be read on is no longer accepted, and the reason is explained on the settings screen.
• Control borders and the focus indicator inside the toolbar are darker, so they are visible against the panel.
• High and low contrast modes now also recolor placeholder text and icons, so icon-only buttons on the site no longer disappear when a mode is on.
• The “highlight hidden elements” mode no longer fades the elements it marks, so their text keeps its original contrast.
• Links keep a distinct focus indicator while “highlight links” is on.
• The toolbar panel now fits narrow screens and heavy zoom without clipped labels.
• The magnifier’s page copy is no longer reachable by keyboard, so focus can no longer disappear into it.
• Number keys 1-9 no longer get intercepted while you are typing in a field, a dropdown, or a rich-text editor.
• The spacing buttons now announce which spacing they adjust, and the landmark markers are hidden from screen readers.
• Closing the toolbar no longer pulls focus away from whatever you just clicked, and turning the toolbar off moves focus to the re-enable control.
• Voice command status is now announced, including when the microphone is blocked.
• The accessibility statement page is generated in the site’s language rather than your profile language, and an invalid contact email is now reported instead of being silently dropped.

1.0.7

• Documentation only: trimmed the plugin description. No functional changes, and no settings were changed.

1.0.6

• Hardened the automatic form-field labeling feature: it now identifies quoted attribute values in the page more reliably, so an input whose surrounding markup contains unusual quoting can no longer have a label spliced into the wrong place.

1.0.5

• The automatic form-field labeling feature now closes its output buffer explicitly instead of leaving it for request shutdown, so it no longer risks interfering with the shared output-buffer stack used by WordPress core, themes, and other plugins.

1.0.4

• The toolbar’s design is now fully isolated from the site’s own stylesheet: aggressive theme and page-builder CSS (global button skins, dark themes, icon-font injections, !important resets) can no longer restyle the toolbar panel, tiles, or buttons.

1.0.3

• Color-blindness filters now CORRECT color (daltonization) instead of simulating the deficiency, so enabling one actually aids the viewer rather than degrading color further.
• The toolbar’s own chrome now meets WCAG 2.1 AA contrast out of the box: a darker default color, a near-black active-tile label, and header/button text that automatically switches to white or black to stay legible on whatever main color you choose.
• Renamed the “Screen-reader compatibility” toggle to “Highlight hidden elements” — it highlights aria-hidden elements, which is what it actually does.
• Compatibility: the toolbar and the automatic form-field labeling now stand down inside page-builder front-end editors (Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Oxygen, Brizy, Thrive) so they no longer overlap or rewrite the editing canvas. Gutenberg and the classic editor were already unaffected.
• When another Rank+ accessibility toolbar is active on the site, this one now steps aside automatically instead of showing a second floating button.
• Fixed: “Reset all settings” now also turns off the magnifier, virtual keyboard, read-on-click reader, voice commands, and smart navigation; a corrupted saved preference can no longer break the toolbar; and text-to-speech stops when you navigate to another page.
• Performance: the dynamic form-field labeler batches its work on streaming/infinite-scroll pages, and the server-side labeler bails out safely on extremely large pages.

1.0.2

• Renamed the plugin to “Rank+ – Website Accessibility”. No functional changes; the plugin slug, settings, and stored options are unchanged.

1.0.1

• Hardening for the automatic form-field labeling: the server-side rewriter now leaves a control untouched when its tag contains a raw “>” inside a quoted attribute value (preventing a shifted tag boundary), never treats markup inside script/style/textarea/title content as a real field, and derives labels only from real page markup.

1.0.0

• Initial release: floating accessibility toolbar with 30+ features, accessibility statement generator with regional standard presets, automatic form-field labeling, five bundled languages (English, Hebrew, Arabic, Russian, German), full RTL support.
