  Hi! I am designing my website and I was curious if all of your templates and features are ADA compliant? Are there any features that would make them not be ADA approved? If so, which ones? Thank you in advance!

  Hello there,

  Many thanks for reaching out.

  When it comes to accessibility, there are different sets of rules which have their own stipulations, for example – Section 508 Accessibility Guidelines.

  WordPress.com cannot ensure a site is fully compliant with these guidelines, since they include both the structure of the pages and the content that users add to their pages.

  It is possible to test themes before using them, and there’s a bit more on that here: https://wordpress.com/support/accessibility/#accessibility-guidelines

  I hope this helps.
