The links with the markdown formatting do look correctly styled to me on my end 🤔

If you mean in comparison to the default theme, yeah I don't style my links like the default theme with an underline.

Yes, I just mean the link coloring difference in this case. I used the default theme just to compare whether obsidian by default retains the link styling when using bold or italics in the link text.

Here is a screenshot of two links, one with and one without formatting, using a new vault using ITS with default settings to better show the difference using just ITS:

The link coloration is only missing in reading view, in editing view it is blue as usual.

Here is the sample vault with just ITS installed via BRAT and a note with those two links: Test.zip

Looking at the styling in the developer tools shows that the styling for em and strong is overriding the inherited styling for a.external-link, specifically the color. Seems in pre-1.0 ITS, --italic-color and --bold-color were set to inherit by default whereas in 1.0 they are set to --text.

Ah can you update to ITS v1.0.41 and see if this has been fixed?

👍 Working perfectly now!
