    Our client requires their site to meet certain accessibility levels.

    Unfortunately your plugin fails as there is no tab index on the buttons so people can’t use their keyboard to navigate the buttons.

    Would you consider updating the plugin with tab indexes on all buttons?

    It turns out a plugin called WP Accessibility was removing the tab indexes, please ignore /delete this post.

    If you’re referring to the ‘Cookie Settings’ and ‘Accept All’ controls, the best solution would really be to re-map those as buttons, since that’s how they’re operating. But if they’re going to stay as links, they can be made focusable by including an href attribute. A anchor element without an href attribute is not a link, and is not natively focusable.

    But this is one of the cases that WP Accessibility could handle better; I can check for anchor elements that don’t have an href and exclude those.
