⚙️How to Install SmartFix™ on Joomla

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

To make use of our SmartFix™ feature, you will need to install a JS snippet on your Joomla 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: Log Into Joomla

Open your Joomla administrator dashboard.

Step 3: Open the Template Manager

In the Joomla administrator menu:

  • Click System

  • Under Site Templates, select Templates

  • Click your active website template

This is where you can edit the files that control your website layout.

Step 4: Open the index.php Template File

  • Inside the template editor, locate and open: index.php. This file controls the global structure of your Joomla website and contains the closing </body> tag.

  • Scroll toward the bottom of the index.php file and locate: </body>.

  • Paste your remediation script immediately before the closing </body> tag.

  • Click Save in the template editor to apply the changes.

Step 5: Validate the Connection
