We have now implemented a plugin management for PT Run into the settings ux. (PR #9872; Issue #5273)

Enhancement

We show the plugin author on each plugin's list view item.
In our plugin.json we have an entry for the web page. So the idea is to show the author name as link to the website if the element is filled in the json.

Then we don't have to append the link on the side panel (section: Attribution) like we have at the moment for Window Walker:

This is a remaining work item form PR #9872.

In the plugins.json is an entry for the link. So it should depends on the value there.

json - url: www.mypage.de
json - author: MyName
link - text: MyName
link - url: www.mypage.de

⚠️ If the json element is empty the author name has to be shown as simple text and not as link.

Example use case
We could move the WindowWalker link from side panel into the plugin element of the listview.
