Hello! I currently use the following CSS class for links in paragraphs:

.entry-content a {border-bottom: 2px solid #ffc59f;}
.entry-content a:hover {border-bottom: 2px solid #da6518;}

I would like to know how I can apply this effect:

Thank you

Hi there,

try this:

.entry-content p a {
    background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #ffc59f 0%, #ffc59f 100%);
    background-position: 0 100%;
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-size: 4px 4px;
    color: #000;
    text-decoration: none;
    transition: background-size .2s;
}

.entry-content p a:hover {
    background-size: 4px 50px;
}

In this line:

background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #ffc59f 0%, #ffc59f 100%);

You will see 2 x instances of the same color: #ffc59f
If you want a different color you need to change both of them to the new color.

Thank you very much, it works perfectly.

But I would be interested if the buttons were left out of this style. How can I do it?

Here you can see a button.

I updated the CSS above - it now ill only target links within text

Absolutely delighted with your technical support. Millions of thanks!

Glad to be of help!
