Touchstones inside spoiler tags

Touchstones placed inside spoiler tags in a talk post are invisible even after the spoiler is opened. I'm using chrome on an android phone.

I am testing to see whether Telephone Tales shows up.

Okay, test shows the same problem with Firefox 87.0, Mac OS Sierra 10.12.6

But it does show if I hover over the blank place where it is.

I wonder if this is a problem with all links https://www.librarything.com not specifically touchstones

It has something to do with "spoiler a" overriding "spoiler.spoiled a" in the CSS. I'd guess the !important notation.

spoiler a { color: #F8F4E5 !important; }
spoiler.spoiled a { color: #004db9; color: var(--lt-link-color); }

Similar, but not related and not worth starting another thread for, I think.

I typed a touchstone into one of my posts and, although it showed in the touchstone sidebar of that post, the touchstone didn't appear once I posted it, though the other touchstones in the same post did work. It took me a couple of looks to realise that I had opened the link with single brackets but closed it with triple brackets (don't ask).

The Thursday Murder Club

A minor issue, but should be easy to sort out?

>11 humouress: Does it work if you reduce the triple brackets to single?

>12 kristilabrie: You mean a normal book touchstone? :0) Yes.

It was just odd that it should show in the sidebar (and then not work as a touchstone once I posted the message).

This isn't really surprising, as the sidebar brackets kick off when you close the bracket sequence. it doesn't really care if you add more after them.
