Steps to add the accessibility widget on Wix
Step 1: Check your Wix plan
Wix’s sitewide Custom Code feature needs a Premium plan. If you’re on a free Wix plan, skip to the alternative method at the end of this guide.
Step 2: Open Custom Code settings
From your Wix dashboard, go to Settings > Custom Code.
Step 3: Add your script
Click Add Custom Code and paste the script you copied from AccessiYes.
Step 4: Set the placement
Set Add Code to Pages to All Pages and choose Head under Place Code in.
Step 5: Save and publish
Click Apply, then publish your site for the change to go live.
Step 6: Verify
Open your published site (not the editor preview). You should see the accessibility icon in the position you chose when generating your script.
If you’re on a free Wix plan: add the script using the Embed a Widget > Embed HTML element from the editor’s Add panel instead, pasting the same script on each page where you want the widget to appear. Upgrading to a Premium plan lets you use the sitewide method above instead.
A widget on its own does not make a site fully legally compliant. It gives visitors real, working adjustments and is one part of a broader accessibility effort alongside a WCAG-focused review of your site’s design and content.
