  I know I did this but I’m having a brain-freeze. How can I change the color of a link in a post with html?

  <a href="URL" target="_blank"><span style="color:#CHOSEN_HEX_NUMBER_HERE;">TITLE</span></a>

  Others might find it easier to write the link title in the visual editor, highlight it, change its color via the Color button, then turn it into a link via the link button.
