WordPress Plugins are just like Lego blocks. You can make them do anything you want with a little creativity and the right imagination. And the accessiBe WordPress plugin is no exception to this rule.
With a few simple tweaks, you can make the accessiBe plugin work better for your website visitors. This article will show you how to customize the accessiBe plugin to make your website more accessible.
What does accessiBe do?
First things first, let’s look at what the accessiBe plugin can do. By default, the plugin adds an accessibility toolbar to your website. This toolbar provides various tools and features that make it easier for people with disabilities to use your website.

The toolbar is customizable, so you can choose which features you want to include. To customize the toolbar, go to the accessiBe plugin settings page and scroll down to the “Toolbar” section.
You can select which features you want to include in the toolbar. Simply check the boxes next to the features you want to include, and uncheck the ones you don’t want.
You can also choose where the toolbar appears on your website. By default, it appears at the bottom of your website. But you can also choose to have it appear at the top or in a fixed position on the left or right side of your screen.
To change the position of the toolbar, select the “Position” drop-down and choose your preferred option.
How to change the colors of the toolbar
