Improved accessibility guidance and new options in the Audit panel

After nearly one year in beta, we're officially releasing the Audit panel today along with five enhancements that will make improving your website accessibility even easier. Check out what's new today and what we're planning to add next.

The audit panel is now out of beta with improved in-product, step-by-step guidance to help you resolve accessibility issues
The Audit panel is now out of beta with improved in-product, step-by-step guidance to help you resolve accessibility issues.

Here’s a quick list of the improvements to the Audit panel that we’re launching today:

  1. In-product guidance to help you resolve each detected accessibility issue
  2. Colored panel icon for newly detected audits
  3. Outstanding audits now discoverable in the Publish Dropdown
  4. Option to ignore individual audit suggestions
  5. Alt text audit for multi-image fields

For more in-depth documentation on each of these improvements (plus documentation on what the Audit panel is), check out our Webflow University documentation for a closer look.

Next up on the accessibility front, we’ll be adding support for outline styles to improve the experience for site visitors using screen readers and navigating by keyboard.

P.S. Thanks to everyone who provided feedback during the beta — we really appreciate it!
