Hi team,

Most times when someone uploads a post via the frontend form that we have, it includes this code all over <span font-weight: 400;>
This overrides our default blog post CSS.

Thus, each time, I have to highlight everything and click the Clear formatting button, but that's only if there's no actual manual bold text. Otherwise, I have to take the code, paste in Notepad++, remove all font-weight: 400; and paste it back in Code tab. Then, when I go to Visual, it's normal and erases all the <span> tags.

It's a hassle, as you can tell.

When someone uploads using your plugin, it shouldn't add that font-weight.

I can't tell when this happens though. I tried asking some of the clients who upload but I can't figure it out. I'm thinking they're copying their text from Google Docs, or from an online app that checks for grammar. Or, they use Mac computers? I use Windows 10 and do not get that when I upload on my own using a text from Word (docx). But, I also tried from Google Docs and didn't have an issue. I'm guessing Mac is the guilty one?

Secondly, those that manually bold their text, the bold text gets this tag <b> instead of <strong>. Shouldn't your plugin generate <strong> tag instead? Same happens with <i> and <em> from what I recall.

Thanks!
