Color changing for URL in Editor

[lumay]

In Wordpres 4.8.x, after color changing for URL in Editor, there is following html code placing:

<span style="color: #000000;"><a href="">URL</a></span>

before was:

<span style="color: #000000"><a style="color: #000000;" href=""">URL</a></span> 

And it was correct for me. Now I have to changing every link in HTML editor to add span code for link color - could you please fix or add option for that?

Thank you in advance!

Welcome to Trac and thank you for the ticket.

By Editor are you referring to Visual Editor where you are creating your posts?
Can you please tell me the steps to reproduce the issue?

@lumay Thank you for your detailed response. One thing though.

Can you meanwhile try this please and see if you can still reproduce the same?

1. Deactivate all plugins.
2. Switch back to a default theme like twentyseventeen.

Please let me know what you find.

I can't do that on this specific website, because it is online, but I will try to do that on another project.

I'm unable to reproduce this on a site with no plugins and a default theme.

Please re-open this ticket if you have steps to reproduce it.
