    <summary type="html">Just a curiosity:  we have a blind guy on the Liferay Portugal Users group and he is a programmer and content admin for his organization. He uses Liferay CE 6.2 and says it&amp;#39;s not perfect but he manages pretty well.  He also provides accessibility consulting services, if anyone needs some. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HTH&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fernando</summary>

But around that time, and it &lt;em&gt;might&lt;/em&gt; have been Sergio presenting. I know that either Julio or they both toured with that presentation for a while. Might have been a joint effort - but it&amp;#39;s long enough ago that my attribution can be wrong.</summary>

Something like the module from the picture below. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;Not sure about the difference between &amp;#34;Accessibility&amp;#34; and &amp;#34;Real Accessibility&amp;#34;: Liferay&amp;#39;s UI should be accessible (e.g. screen-reader compatible and keyboard-navigable) by default.&lt;br /&gt;Naturally, the administrative UI might be a bit harder due to the amount of features, but in general, it &lt;em&gt;should&lt;/em&gt; work. &lt;br /&gt;Personally, I have no experience with tools like screenreaders (and none installed), so I can&amp;#39;t vet, but I know that the UI teams are having Accessibility in mind. And on one of the previous symposiums or Devcon, I&amp;#39;ve seen a blindfolded site creation on stage, utilizing just the keyboard and a screenreader.</summary>

Something like the module from the picture below. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The module from the picture is created in Wordpress. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is there an applet in Liferay for the people with disabilities - something like the &amp;#34;real accessibility plugin&amp;#34; in Wordpress ? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you very much. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ps: You can see an example of real accesibility plugin in a wordpress site - https://sgg.gov.ro/new/guvernare-transparenta-deschisa-si-participativa-standardizare-armonizare-dialog-imbunatatit-cod-sipoca-35/</summary>
