Orange Confort+ accessibility toolbar for WordPress

Description

This plugin adds the Orange Confort+ toolbar, version 4.3.5, to your WordPress website.

Orange Confort+ aims to enhance user experience on your website. It works best when your website is fully accessible because it does not fix website accessibility issues: blocking points stay blocking points, with or without Orange Confort+.

The Orange Confort+ service was created by Orange. It provides significant assistance to users with motor, visual or cognitive disabilities (such as dyslexia), and improves the user experience for all.

Toolbar features

  • Typography: font size, word-spacing, letter-spacing, line-height, font-face (Arial, Luciole, Open Sans, Open Dyslexic and Accessible DfA).
  • Layout: cancel layout, force left-aligned text, number list items, customize links appearance, display a reading mask.
  • Colors: modify foreground and background colors.
  • Behavior: direct access to main content on page load, automatic selection of page clickable elements with a user defined delay, page scrolling on simple user on hover.
  • Toolbar available in French, English, Polish and Spanish, defaulting to the site language.

Plugin features

  • Toolbar and button position can be set on Settings > Reading.
  • Custom button position with a shortcode.
  • Compatible with many Cookie Consent plugins via WP Consent API.
  • WordPress Multisite compatible.

FAQ

Where are the plugin options?

Toolbar and button position can be set on Settings > Reading.

Can I get a custom button location?

A shortcode ocplus_button is available to allow giving the Orange Confort+ button a custom location. The shortcode will generate a Button block with one button “Confort +”.

How to use the shortcode?

Add a the following shortcode in an Shortcode block where you wish the button to appear in any template part or widget zone.

[ocplus_button style="outline" color="black" bgcolor="" /]

If you wish to add the button to a custom, non-block, theme PHP template file, you can use this:

echo do_shortcode( '[ocplus_button style="outline" color="black" bgcolor="" /]' );

These parameters are available to make it match your site theme more closely:

  • style for the button style; can be fill or outline (default: not set). Note: styles may not work as expected, depending on your theme.
  • color set the text color and outline color (default: white). Note: the + sign will always remain orange.
  • bgcolor sets the button background color (default: not set).

Please note: there can be only one button on a web page and not all toolbar positions may work well in combination with a custom button position
