Does the EAA apply to Webflow sites?

Yes — if your Webflow site serves EU consumers or enterprise clients, WCAG 2.1 AA compliance is expected under the EAA.

What does the scanner check on Webflow sites?

16 rules: alt text on images, form labels, link/button text, heading hierarchy, language attribute, viewport meta, colour contrast, and more.

Where do I fix common issues in Webflow?

Alt text: select image → Settings → Alt Text. Contrast: select text → Typography → Color. Headings: Style panel → HTML Tag.

Does Webflow handle accessibility automatically?

Partially. Webflow generates clean HTML but alt text, contrast, form labels, focus states, and skip navigation are all your responsibility.

Why Webflow accessibility matters in the EU

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) applies to e-commerce and consumer-facing services in the EU. If your Webflow store sells to EU customers, WCAG 2.1 AA compliance is expected — and enterprise partners increasingly ask for proof before they sign.

Most accessibility problems on Webflow sites come from a handful of repeating issues: missing alt text on product images, generic link text like "read more", low-contrast text over theme colours, empty form labels, and missing page language. All of these are detectable automatically — that's what our scanner checks.

🔍 What gets checked

16 automated rules covering images, links, forms, headings, language, viewport, contrast, ARIA misuse, and more — mapped to real WCAG success criteria.

Common fixes in Webflow

When your scan flags a failing rule, here's where to fix it in the Webflow Designer:

Issue	Where to fix in Webflow
Missing alt text	Select the image element → Style panel → Settings tab → Alt Text field. For CMS collection images, set it in the CMS field template.
Low contrast text	Select the text element → Style panel → Typography → Color — use a contrast checker and ensure at least 4.5:1 ratio. Avoid pure white (#fff) on light grey (#eee).
Missing heading structure	In Designer, check that heading elements use proper HTML tags (H1-H6) in the Style panel → Typography → HTML Tag dropdown. Only one H1 per page.
Empty form labels	Select the form block → ensure each input has a Label element. In Webflow, form fields need an explicit label — don't rely on placeholder text alone.
Missing page language	Project Settings → Custom Code → before `</head>` paste: `<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en">`. Or set it per-page in Page Settings.
Focus indicators removed	Add in Project Settings → Custom Code → before `</head>`: `<style>*:focus-visible { outline: 3px solid #0066cc; }</style>`
