Remove Accessibility Checks

How to remove an accessibility check from a Site or Page Set

Updated over a week ago

Some of the default accessibility checks may not apply to your website's desired accessibility level. If you need to disable a check across an entire Site or Page Set, follow these directions. If you need to disable a check for a single page, you can do that in the accessibility issues area on that page.

Removing Accessibility Checks

The first step is to go to your Site or Page Set's dashboard and locate the Accessibility Score panel. Select the issues link (48 issues in the example below).

Next, locate the issue you want to remove in the list displayed and select the kebab menu under the Actions column for that item.

What users see in the associated pop-up menu depends on both what type of item you are viewing and your permissions in that item.

Users with the Viewer role will see:

  • Mark resolve for this site/ page set

Users with a Manager role will see:

  • Ignore for this site / all sites in this page set

  • Mark resolve for this site / all sites in this page set

Users with an Admin role will see:

  • Ignore for this site / all sites in this page set

  • Ignore for this account

  • Mark resolve for this site / all sites in this page set

  • Mark resolve for this account

Bring back a Currently Ignored Issue

You must have an Administrator role to bring back an ignored issue.

If at some point you decide that you need the issue to display again, use the Settings > Page Sets or Settings > Sites area. Select your Page Set or Site, click on Manage Checks, and select Accessibility.

On the settings page, there is a blue circle with the number 1 in white inside the circle indicating that clicking Settings is the first thing you do. Beside "Page Sets" in the Account Settings menu on the left, a blue circle with the number 2 in white inside the circle beside it. And then a blue circle with the number 31 in white inside the circle is indicating you should click "Manage Checks."

Find the issue you no longer wish to ignore, check the box next to it, and click on the trashcan icon that appears for removal. An alert prompt will verify that you intend to remove the issue from the "ignore" area.
