William
Hi,
I would like to know, are there visually impaired people using wordpress for your site? Are you using any free webhosting, and any of them are accessible using NVDA? Thanks, William

I personally don't believe in using free web hosting. I pay for all of mine, and my clients' web hosting packages, or at least they do lol! I'ts much better that way, and you are in control of what plugins you use and don't use, and can scan for problems etc. Sarah Alawami, owner of TFFP. .

Now it depends what you want. I have used 000webhost which is ftp only and you just run and go but updating is a bit of a bumb as it just won't do automatically. If you are just starting out, sign up and make a free blog on wordpress.com Then when logging in use www.wordpress.com/wp-admin to get in and m.wordpress.com to write in a more accessible format.

William, if you want to have free hosting while at the same time

experimenting w/WordPress, then I suggest you consider a site on wordpress.com. You get an url that looks like wordpress.com/yourusername, but it'll allow you to begin discovering what WordPress has to offer for free & also not have to worry about administering your site. The downside, as Sarah points out, is that you don't have as much control over the themes you can use, & plugins to extend the site's functionality are pretty much nonexistent. I do host websites, but I charge for that service, & likely more than larger companies do, simply because I supply more services behind the scenes. Note also that my signature contains a mailing list for WordPress newbies to which you should feel free to subscribe. Lastly, www.wp4newbs.com is a site that contains some free WordPress tutorials, but much of it concentrates on site administration, so if you're going to use wordpress.com for awhile, you might not need those right now. I believe wordpress.com allows you to install the WordPress Classic Editor, & I would recommend you get started w/WordPress using that.

Actually there is a way to turn off the visual editor. I did this in my prefs and it works nicely. It should work better with nvda if you want to do that. Take care Sarah Alawami, owner of TFFP. .

And with that, I am going to lock this thread as we have seemingly moved away from NVDA accessibility to talking about how to use Wordpress. If you would like to learn more about Wordpress, a resource was given for a mailing list, and questions of such nature can be sent to the NVDA chat list as well. Thanks.
