    It has been over a day since you posted with no suggestions forthcoming. If you’re otherwise satisfied with the plugin you have, other than the fact it uses Google fonts, I suggest that you contact the plugin’s support staff to see if there’s a way to either use common system fonts, or to use font files served from your own server.

    thank you very much..
    the people behind ALLY told me they may fix it in the future.
    unfortunately i don’t know how to fix alone..

    thus i’ve asked if you know of another add-on..

    I’m sorry, I don’t know of such a plugin that I could recommend. Hopefully someone else will come along with a suggestion.

    As far as fixing ALLY, AFAICT it only gets Google fonts for its admin page. It can be removed with the following PHP code:

    add_action('admin_print_styles', function() {
    wp_dequeue_style('ea11y-admin-fonts');
}, 1 );

    This can be included with other PHP code you might have that is not subject to periodic updates. For example, your theme’s functions.php if applicable. If all else fails, it could be made into its own simple plugin. Place the above code into a new file named “no-ally-google.php”, placed in /wp-content/plugins/. Include the following header above the suggested code:

    <?php
/*
Plugin Name: No ALLY Google
Description: Prevent ALLY plugin from getting Google fonts
Author: bcworkz
Version: 0.10 beta
License: GPL v3.0
*/

    After uploading the file to your server via FTP or hosting file manager, you’ll need to activate the plugin in WP admin. The ALLY plugin’s page may not display as intended, but the font used should end up being a system default. If you prefer to use the WP admin plugin installer, this file will need to be placed into a /no-ally-google/ directory within a .zip file.

    If you want a plugin for accessibility that:
    • Supports RTL and works with Hebrew
    • Does not keep track of visits,
    • It functions dependably for both external and logged-in visitors,

    I suggest these plugins:

    • WP Accessibility: A feature-rich plugin that enhances accessibility with ARIA landmarks and skip links. It does not keep track of users and supports RTL languages like Hebrew.
    • One Click Accessibility: A lightweight plugin that offers basic capabilities for adjusting contrast, changing fonts, and other features. It does not gather visitor information and supports Hebrew.
    • AccessibleWP Toolbar: Adds an accessibility toolbar to your site, including text resizing and high-contrast mode. It works well with Hebrew and does not track users.

    All of these plugins work without disappearing, ensuring accessibility features remain visible to all visitors.

    You may also use the Accessibility Checker Tool(https://www.tranistics.com/accessibility-checker-tool/) to see if your website is accessible. This tool helps you find areas for improvement to make your website more inclusive for all visitors by scanning it to make sure it conforms with accessibility requirements.
