Accessibility Statement

Our template target

ForgeLocal is designed toward WCAG 2.1 AA where realistically possible, using semantic landmarks, logical headings, keyboard-operable controls, visible focus, labelled forms and reduced-motion support.

Included features

• Skip-to-content link and semantic landmarks
• Keyboard-managed desktop and mobile navigation
• Accessible accordions, tabs, modals and filters
• Labelled form controls, error summaries and status messages
• Range-based before-and-after comparison with text fallback
• Meaningful alternative text and hidden decorative SVGs
• Responsive layouts and safe mobile action spacing
• prefers-reduced-motion support

Known template limitations

Accessibility depends on the buyer’s replacement content, colors, media, integrations and third-party services. Placeholder legal, review, qualification and contact information must be replaced. The original SVG map is illustrative, not navigational.

Testing performed for this release

The included QA script checks page structure, local file references, metadata and structured-data syntax. Browser checks cover key interactions and console errors where documented in the QA report. Automated checks do not replace user testing with assistive technology.

Feedback contact placeholder

Preparation checklist

• Retest contrast after changing colors
