⚙️How to Install SmartFix™ on WordPress

Steps to following to add our SmartFix™ script to your WordPress site.

To make use of our SmartFix™ feature, you will need to install a JS snippet on your WordPress website.

The snippet needs to be added to your site’s global template, right before </body> tag.

Once installed, the remediation script will automatically run across your website and enable AI-assisted accessibility fixes.

Here are the steps you’ll need to follow to get set up.

Step 1: Locate Your SmartFix™ Script

After adding your domain to ACE™ Scanner, you will see the option to Set Up SmartFix™.

Here, you’ll find your unique JavaScript snippet.

To locate the script:

  1. Log into your AccessibilityChecker.org account

  2. Click on your domain

  3. Click Set Up SmartFix™

  4. Copy the script snippet provided

Step 2: Install the Script on WordPress

There are two common ways to install the script on WordPress:

  1. Using a plugin (recommended for most users)

  2. Adding the script directly to your theme files

The plugin method is the easiest and safest option.

Option 1 (Recommended): Install Using a Header & Footer Plugin

  • Log Into WordPress

  • From the WordPress dashboard:

    • Go to Plugins

    • Click Add New Plugin

  • Search for: WPCode - Insert Headers and Footers

  • Install and activate the plugin

  • After activation, go to the plugin settings and locate the Footer or Scripts in Footer section

  • Paste the copied SmartFix™ script into the footer scripts field and click Save.

  • Return to ACE™ Scanner and click Validate Connection. If the script has been installed correctly, the connection status will update automatically.

Option 2: Add the Script Directly to Your Theme

This option is recommended for developers or advanced WordPress users.

  • Open the Theme File Editor by going to to Appearance and selecting Theme File Editor

  • Open the footer.php file

  • Scroll to the bottom of the file and locate:

</body>

  • Add the script immediately before the closing tag.

Example:

<script src="cdn.accessibilitychecker.com/client-id/remediate.js"></script>

</body>

  • Click Update File to apply your changes.

You can now click Validate Connection on your ACE™ Scanner dashboard to confirm the connection.
