System Dashboard : Multiple links redirects to same page.

Issue Summary

On “System Dashboard” page, the “user profile” and “user name” links present in “Activity stream” section are redirecting to same page redundantly.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Navigate to “Dashboard” link present in header region and activate it.
2. Navigate to “View System Dashboard” link and activate it.
3. Navigate to user profile icon link present in “Activity stream” section and activate it.
4. Navigate to “user name” link and activate it. Observe both links redirect to same “User profile - Summary” page.

Actual Results

In “Activity stream” section, the “user icon” and “user name” links are redirecting to the same page. It makes bad user experience for keyboard-only & screen reader users.

Expected Results

The links adjacent to each other should not be used to redirect the user to same page unless it is required.

In this case remove the user profile icon <a> element present inside <span class=”user-icon”> since it is redundant & similar link is available right next to the profile icon.

If removing the <a> element is not possible then provide following attributes to hide it from keyboard & assistive technology users.

• tabindex=”-1”
• aria-hidden=”true”
• role=”presentation”
