Is your enhancement related to a problem? Please describe.

Ensure full accessibility compliance including keyboard navigation, screen reader support, and proper color contrast.

Technical Context:

  • Requires WCAG 2.1 AA + WordPress core a11y guidelines
  • Chart tooltips must be keyboard and screen reader accessible

Implementation Breakdown

  • Charts: aria-label on canvas elements; hidden <table> alternatives for screen readers; keyboard-navigable tooltips
  • Use sufficient color contrast (4.5:1 text, 3:1 large text); don't rely on color alone (add labels/patterns)
  • KPI cards: semantic HTML (<section>, <h2>), aria-label per card
  • Filters: proper <label> elements; keyboard-navigable datepicker; aria-live region for content updates on filter change
  • Page heading hierarchy: h1 > h2 > h3 logical structure
  • All interactive elements focusable with visible focus indicators
  • All error messages wrapped in __() / esc_html__() for translation

Acceptance Criteria

  • All charts have screen reader accessible data tables
  • Keyboard navigation works for all interactive elements (filters, tooltips, links)
  • Color contrast meets WCAG standards
  • aria-live regions announce content updates
