I'm having trouble with the collapse name="Title here"color=#color Command on my character site located Here, The command was working fine on the first half of the sheet, as under the abilities section, but when I changed the color and started on the weaknesses section, it suddenly stopped having the full title in the quotation marks of the command, only using the first word and it works to collapse the text so I know it is mostly working. I just do not know why the cut off.
Theoretically I could get around this by using _ or other workarounds to make it all one word, But I don't want to do that for every time I encounter this problem, I would like to solve this problem as I know the command work as I want on the page. I just do not know why it is no longer doing so.

I actually don't recall having ever been able to use any attributes on the collapse tag here. 
But this seems like something you'd want to send in a bug report for rather than seeking help from the community here.

I was really hoping I just encountered a simple mistake I'm not catching and someone else had experienced it, hence going here instead of straight to the bug report.
I hope it's alright if I leave this up just in case someone sees it who does know my issue, even as I make a bug report. If I find a solution I'll post a reply here!
Also yes it is possible but not in the regular way where you stack the commands, it is it's own separate command. I was shown it from Here!. It was working fine before my issue.

Alright small update, I have not found a full fix but I have figured out what I think to be the issue!
It seems to be something to do with the color code, For example Directly copy and pasted from my character sheet where the bug happened
vs
The first one, using the color code #84C6D9 works while it seems #ffd27b does not, I'm not sure if that's the entire issue but it is the work around I figured out!

▶Conditional Regeneration

"▶Vampiric

collapse name="”color=#ffd27b

It's not actually anything to do with the color code! Your wish that it be a small mistake is granted! 
The closing quote on "Vampiric invitation" is not an actual quote character. It looks like the quote at the end of the word invitation has been converted into a "curly quote", which is aesthetic but doesn't actually register for code. If I had to guess, you wrote some of this in a word processing program, which changed the quote to an aesthetic alternative, then pasted it into the text box here.
The BBcode interpreter sees that you have a starting quote for the name portion, but no closing quote. So it's just deciding arbitrarily to end the name after the first word. It probably is parsing something like this:
That is not valid BBcode, so it's just ignoring everything after the name attribute.
If you change the curly quote to a regular quote, it works as expected, including color.
Example:
Code:
[collapse name="▶Vampiric Invitaition”color=#ffd27b]
collapse name="”color=#ffd27b [/collapse]

Thank you so much! yes I was in fact swapping between a couple different text boxes and doing a lot of copy and pasting, I see why I didn't notice the change in quotation marks I barely saw it when looking for it! I'll be on the lookout for something like that now.
I am very thankful it is indeed an issue of me missing something. Thanks for taking the time to figure it out!
