Underline links in the plugin description for installed plugins

[Travel_girl]

At the moment the links in the plugin description for installed plugins are not underlined.

In my eyes this is fine for the lower links like "details", "support" and so on because there are separated with "|" and stand alone. But I see a problem for links in the plugin description above, cause color blind people could miss the links in the text.

I would suggest to underline the links in the plugin excerption so its easier for everyone to spot the links.

.plugin-description a {

text-decoration: underline;

}

There was already class ".plugins .desc p" so I have used it and added CSS "plugins .desc p a" for make underline of links in plugin description.

Added space before "{".

Should the links within the update notices be underlined too? I guess so, as the contrast on the yellow background is even lower than on a white background.

Plugins page:

On the Dashboard the background is white but there's no underline:

This would also improve consistency with similar links used for Themes, that are underlined:

I have created patch 426471.3.diff for link underline on plugin update notice and dashboard of updates. Suggested by @afercia

@chetan200891 thanks for the patches and welcome to contributing! :-)

@afercia yes there should be underlined too because it is also surrounded by p, so color blind people could miss the links.

added class in common.css ".plugin-version-author-uri a, .plugin-update p a, .plugin-title p a"

42647.3.diff​ refreshes the patch. As mentioned in the original ticket description, better to not touch the links in the line below the plugins description because they're separated with "|" and the context helps clarifying they're links.

See in the screenshot below an example of the links that are going to be underlined (plus the one in the Updates screen):

In 42810:

Accessibility: Underline the links in the Plugins descriptions and update notices.

Links within blocks and lines of text should always be underlined.

Fixes #42647.
