Ally Accessibility should work with most standard WordPress configurations. However, because Ally connects each site through a <strong>domain-based subscription<\/strong>, compatibility depends on how WordPress handles URLs at the site level. Below is an overview of what Ally works with \u2014 and where limitations apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WordPress Core compatibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ally supports:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Latest WordPress versions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Classic Editor and Gutenberg (Block Editor)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ally scans the rendered HTML, so it works with any editor that outputs standard front-end markup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Theme Compatibility<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ally works with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Most modern WordPress themes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Custom<strong> <\/strong>themes built with standard coding practices<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Page<strong> <\/strong>builder\u2013based themes, including Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since Ally analyzes the published HTML, theme structure and builder UI do not affect compatibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Plugin Compatibility<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ally is compatible with most plugins \u2014 except for those that change the site\u2019s URL structure, which affects the subscription connection.

When plugins or configurations alter the URL \u2014 such as language-based slugs or multisite subdomains\/subdirectories \u2014 the connection is interrupted, preventing Ally from functioning properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Incompatible plugins and setups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Most translation\/localization plugins<\/strong> (e.g., Polylang, TranslatePress)<br>These plugins often change the URL of each translated page and Ally\u2019s subscription requires a strict match between the domain and the WordPress URL and these URL changes break the connection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Multisite installations<\/strong><br>Each site in a multisite uses a different URL structure and this prevents Ally from maintaining a stable per-site subscription connection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Subdirectory installations<\/strong> (e.g., domain.com\/site1\/)<br>The subdirectory becomes part of the site\u2019s URL, causing the subscription to fail because it no longer matches the registered domain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ally Accessibility works reliably with most standard WordPress setups, themes, and common plugins. However, due to the domain-matched subscription system, it is <strong>not compatible with most translation plugins<\/strong>, <strong>multisite<\/strong>, or <strong>subdirectory-based sites<\/strong>. WPML is the exception, as it preserves URL integrity in a way that keeps Ally\u2019s connection stable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ally works with the WordPress websites to help make them more accessible.
