Tendforge Statement Forge for EAA
The European Accessibility Act (Directive 2019/882) and the EU Web Accessibility Directive expect a published accessibility statement with a specific structure: your conformance status against the recognised standard, the content that is not yet accessible, a way for visitors to give feedback, and the national enforcement body they can escalate to. Writing that by hand is fiddly and easy to get wrong.
Tendforge Statement Forge for EAA is a short wizard that produces that document for you and publishes it as a page — and it is honest by construction. It generates a disclosure: a self-declared statement of where your site stands. It does not make your site accessible, it is not an accessibility overlay, and it never claims your site “is compliant”.
What it does:
- Guided wizard — five short steps: who/scope, an honest yes/no self-assessment, your known limitations, the feedback route and enforcement country, then review and publish. Org name, URL, email and country are pre-filled from your WordPress settings
- Conservative conformance — your answers decide the status. With no testing the status is “non-conformant”; a tested-but-imperfect site is “partially conformant”; “fully conformant” is only possible if every answer is “Yes” and you deliberately confirm it
- All the required sections — commitment, scope, conformance status citing EN 301 549 V3.2.1 (which incorporates WCAG 2.1 or 2.2 AA), the three buckets of non-accessible content (non-compliance, disproportionate burden, out of scope), the feedback mechanism, the enforcement procedure with your country’s designated body, and the preparation/review dates and assessment method
- 27 EU enforcement bodies built in — pick your member state and the correct national complaints/enforcement body is cited with its official link
- Feedback mechanism — a contact route is generated alongside the statement, available as a
[tsffe_feedback]shortcode - Shortcode — drop the statement anywhere with
[tsffe_statement]; an optional one-click footer link is also available - Non-removable disclaimer — every generated statement ends with a plain note that it is a self-declared disclosure, not a certification of compliance and not legal advice
Honest by design
This plugin will not tell you, or your visitors, that your site is accessible. It records what you tell it, conservatively, and presents it in the expected format. It is a starting point for genuine accessibility work, not a substitute for it. It does not provide legal advice.
