How AudioEye surfaces issues with the accessibility scanner tool

AudioEye monitors your site continuously and generates a report of accessibility issues found on your pages. Each flag includes the page URL, the element type, and the WCAG criterion involved. Your report is available in the AudioEye dashboard.

To locate any flagged element directly on the page, add /?oss=1 to the end of the page URL (or &oss=1 if the URL already has parameters). This opens the AudioEye Accessibility Page Scanner, which highlights the specific element and shows exactly what needs to be fixed. Every fix guide below starts with this step.


Fix a specific issue

Select the issue AudioEye flagged on your site to open the step-by-step fix guide for that topic.

Accessibility tip

Every fix guide below assumes you've used the page scanner first to locate the issue. If something doesn't appear highlighted, double-check that you used /?oss=1 for a clean URL and &oss=1 only when the URL already has a ? in it.

Alt text

AudioEye flags images that are missing a text description, have a file name as their alt text, or have a description that does not convey what the image shows. Covers inline images, linked images, and images in Resources.
