PublishPress Blocks v3.7.3: Accordion Block Gets Improved Keyboard Accessibility

PublishPress Blocks v3.7.3 focuses on making Accordion blocks easier to use for everyone. The Accordion block now has improved keyboard behavior, so visitors who navigate with a keyboard can move between headings and open panels more predictably.

This release also fixes several small issues for WordPress 7.0 users.


Feature highlights

  • Better Tab navigation: Accordion headers are now reachable using the Tab key in standard accordion mode.
  • Improved expand all mode: Accordion headers now support button style keyboard behavior, including arrow keys, Home, and End for moving between items. Visitors can use Space as well as Enter to open accordion panels.
