aria-expanded not working as expected

    I am using the weglot shortcode in my nav menu with 2 languages in a dropdown.

    On page load the aside has these classes class="country-selector weglot-dropdown close_outside_click weglot-shortcode"
    and aria-expanded="false"
    When I click the <aside> the dropdown opens and a class of closed is added to the aside, and the aria-expanded remains false.

    If I use tab navigation on page load, I navigate to the aside using tab and press enter, the dropdown appears and the aria-expanded does update to show true, but if I press enter again the dropdown closes, but the aria-expanded label remains true when it should say false.

    This needs to be fixed for our site to pass accessibilty checks, thank you.

    hi @lutheradams ,
    hope you’re fine ? Sorry for the issue you’re facing.
    On my side I’m not able to reproduce your issue (cf video here : https://www.loom.com/share/2816cb503b1c4dbc8eb8c7ce637c80fc)

    May I not not understand how to reproduce your issue? I’ve no access to you’re website : http://currently%20in%20development/

    Can you send me another website where I can check your issue ?

    Regards

    Thank you for your reply.

    I am displaying the weglot dropdown in my header using
    <div id="weglot_here"></div>.

    When using a mouse and the dropdown is visible aria-expanded=false and .closed class is used.

    When using TAB to open and close the dropdown aria-expanded is always true, even when the dropdown is closed.
