Why Brickfield

Everything your content team needs
to get accessibility right

Most accessibility tools check a finished page. Brickfield checks while you write — and fixes most problems before they ever go live.

🔧

Real fixes, not just warnings

92 of 96 checks come with an automated fix. One click to repair deprecated HTML, empty headings, missing alt text, broken contrast, keyboard traps, and more.

⚡

Inline in TinyMCE

A persistent side panel shows all issues while you edit. No modal dialogs that close when you click away — full context is always visible.

🎯

Built for Moodle authors

Checks that matter in Moodle: autocomplete on learner data fields, fieldset grouping for radio buttons, iframes in course content, and colour contrast in editor styles.

📊

96 checks across 20 categories

Links, images, forms, tables, headings, media, lists, deprecated HTML, ARIA, colour contrast, keyboard accessibility — every content element covered.

📥

CSV export reporting

Export a full accessibility report in RFC 4180-compliant CSV. Share with your team, attach to audits, or feed into your institution's compliance tracking.

🔒

Privacy-first & Moodle-native

Fully integrated with Moodle's privacy API and capability system. No external data calls during editing. Runs entirely on your own server.

Fix coverage

92 of 96 checks come with an automated fix

The highest fix coverage of any TinyMCE accessibility plugin. Three fix modes give authors the right level of control for each issue type.

52
⚡ Auto fix
One click, zero input. Deprecated HTML converted, empty elements removed, keyboard handlers added — instantly and undoably.
30
💬 Prompt fix
A focused dialog collects the missing value — alt text, caption, frame title, or a colour with passing contrast — then applies it.
10
⚠ Confirm fix
For structural issues needing author judgement: fake lists, layout tables, nested tables. Author acknowledges and commits to a fix.
4
🔍 Detection only
Issues requiring external resources — video caption files, manual audio review. Flagged clearly so nothing is silently missed.

Used by accessibility teams
across higher education

“Having 96 checks with automated fixes means our course authors catch and fix issues they never would have noticed before — right at the point of creation.

🎓
Accessibility Lead
University eLearning Team

“The side panel approach is exactly right. Authors can see every issue while still editing — no context-switching, no interruption to the writing flow.

💼
Moodle Administrator
National Training Provider

“We went from reactive remediation to proactive prevention. The auto-fix rate means most issues never make it into production content at all.

Standards

Mapped to WCAG 2.1
A, AA, and AAA

Every check in Brickfield maps to a specific WCAG 2.1 success criterion. Authors see not just what to fix, but why it matters — with clear references to the standard that requires it.

The plugin helps institutions meet obligations under the EU Web Accessibility Directive (EN 301 549), UK Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations, US Section 508, and ATAG 2.0.

Helps meet legal obligations under:
🇪🇺 European Accessibility Act (EAA) 🇺🇸 Title II ADA 🇺🇸 Section 508 🇬🇧 UK PSBAR 🇪🇺 EN 301 549
A
WCAG 2.1 Level A — Minimum
Core requirements including text alternatives, keyboard access, and avoiding content that causes seizures.
AA
WCAG 2.1 Level AA — Standard
The legal standard in most jurisdictions. Includes colour contrast (4.5:1), focus indicators, and consistent navigation.
AAA
WCAG 2.1 Level AAA — Enhanced
Enhanced contrast ratios (7:1), sign language for video, no session timeouts. Brickfield flags AAA opportunities too.
ATAG
ATAG 2.0 — Authoring Tool Accessibility
Supports Part B of ATAG 2.0: helping authors produce accessible content through prompts, fixes, and guidance.
