Problems creating footer template part with Tag cloud and colours

[bobbingwide]

In the Site Editor this first pass at the footer area seems reasonable.

But these are a number of problems.
This is what I see in the front end.

Problems

1. Front end - Tag cloud in the front end is displayed with <br /> between each link - when formatted in a column.
2. Editor -Tag cloud colour cannot be set
3. Front end - White colour for the headings has not been respected
4. Editor - Accidentally clicking on a tag cloud link leaves the Site Editor - changes not saved.
5. Editor - Tag clouds only work for certain taxonomies
6. Front end - Group block - no matter what I do it's always full width.

Front end - Tag cloud in the front end is displayed with <br /> between each link - when formatted in a template part.

As expected, this is another instance of the problem I raised with wpautop() being run for template parts.
WordPress/gutenberg#26731

Commenting out line 104 of build/block-library/blocks/template-part.php resolves the problem.

//$content = wpautop( $content );

The fix needs to be applied to packages/block-library/src/template-part/index.php.

I can apply the same workaround as I did for Fizzie; override the rendering of template parts.

Editor -Tag cloud colour cannot be set

Two things here.

1. The tag cloud doesn't support colours
2. I only need to change the colour of links in a footer

3. Front end - White colour for the headings has not been respected

This appears to be the same problem as WordPress/gutenberg#29535
But I got a different result from Carolina's comment WordPress/gutenberg#29535 (comment)

I've worked around the problem by removing the unnecessary colour for link, which added the style attribute which didn't look quite right to me.

style="--wp--style--color--link:var(--wp--preset--color--background)"

Elsewhere the inline CSS sets the color property as:

color:var(--wp--style--color--link,#00e)

Whereas the Tag cloud is working fine in the footer, the archive pages for s-word and b-word haven't yet been developed.
Leaving open therefore.

the archive pages for s-word and b-word haven't yet been developed. Leaving open therefore.

I didn't need to develop archive pages for taxonomies - index.html does the job.

The template part override, commenting out wpautop(), is still in place.
So is the, possibly unnecessary, tag cloud override.

Closing anyway.
