Hi,
I don't use the Email feature, for that very reason.
What I do, is to make a Word document, then go to the Classic Editor, edit a
new post, tap the Visual button and then paste it into the body of the post.
Tapping visual means that hyperlinks in Word are translated to HTML.
Believe me, this is a lot easier than the Email method.
All the best
Steve

Subject: [access-uk] Re: WordPress accessibility
Thanks a lot both for your replies. Let me explain a little more. But first,
let me say I’ve read a little and had a poke around, and I think I’m making
some progress with WordPress. Now, I will be using WordPress.com and not the
programme. I found a very neat feature on WordPress.com called Post by Email,
where you send an email and WordPress convert it into a post and upload it
automatically. This method is sufficient, as I won’t be creating, nor
maintaining a website at this stage. I was invited to be an editor to an
already existing blog/website to publish my articles. Now I have only two
queries on the Post by Email method, and if someone can help me with them, I
think I’d be good to go.
When I sent an email to try Post by Email, the text of the article was aligned
to the right, but WordPress didn’t preserve this alignment, and aligned the
text to the left. The article was in Arabic, so the entire text was aligned to
the right. This is the more pressing issue of the two I have.
The other issue I faced was that the article had a hyperlink, but this
hyperlink appeared as normal text in the post rather than a hyperlink. I think
I will be able to figure out this issue, but it looks that the text alignment
problem is the one that needs some advanced knowledge.
Again, any advice is gratefully received.

WordPress is accessible, although I have found disabling Gutenberg and using
the Classic Editor is makes it easier to use with a screen reader.

Subject: [access-uk] WordPress accessibility
Hi all,
I was invited to contribute to a blog on WordPress. I’ve never used WordPress
before and know very little about it. Is it accessible and easy to use with
Jaws? Or shall I not waste my time?
All I need to do at this stage is to create new posts and post them on this
blog. I searched Google for tutorials about using WordPress with JAWS and few
results came back, but maybe someone could suggest a good tutorial for a
WordPress novice? Also, I checked the JAWS help files for any specific
WordPress instructions but unless I missed it there was none.
Any advice is most welcome.
Amro
