I am utilizing master-details and noticing that one can not use a keyboard to tab through the rows and keyboard click to open the pop up. This is true when set to using the row or the link for the ‘more details’ pop up. There is no tabindex set on the rows *and* the pop up event is only set to click, there is no keyboard press event set up.
This is another major accessibility issue which is problematic for government websites including University websites, which is our use case.
Firstly, I would like to sincerely apologize for the delayed response as we have been experiencing an unusually high number of tickets. I am sorry that it has taken longer than usual to respond to your concern and your patience is highly appreciated.

We are sending this feedback to our QA Team.
They will conduct detailed testing and we will create a task for our Developers to make improvements for the Master-Details accessibility as you suggested.
At the moment, we did achieve full WCAG compatibility for our main Plugin's Tables, but we will certainly take a closer look at what you described when it comes to the Master-Details Add-on.
Thank you for reporting it.
I can't say exactly when these improvements will be made, but you can certainly follow our changeLog page if you'd like ( it is also available in the plugin dashboard), where we state any changes/new features/bug fixes during updates;
and our newsletter, so you're informed about new features, bug fixes, freebies, etc.
Just a small follow up, I spoke with our QA Team about this.
They confirmed that, for now we have achieved full WCAG standards only for our Main Plugin;
This setting can be activated in the Customize options for Tables : WCAG compatibility for table skin.
We are still finishing the Documentation Page about it, but in essence, the tooltip explains the main gist of it.
Our developers listened to all our Users, who reported and suggested various accessibility details, and made improvements based on that feedback.
They did not work on any Add-ons yet for the WCAG, though, but this is planned, too.
So we are gathering all the feedback and we will add new tasks for them.
If you can be so kind, could you please make a development suggestion and you can write all the details you noticed in regards to needed improvements for the Master Details WCAG/Accessibility options;
and our Management will closely follow all the feedback, then we will work our way through the priorities and implement it over time?
to see if someone may be already suggested this feature. If you can't see it, feel free to add your suggestion there, and as more people vote, the feature will move higher on the priority list.
