Freecodecamp: "Change the Color of Text" challenge does not load

Affected challenge

Issue description

There was a small mistake in a recent change, which prevents this challenge from loading correctly when it is loaded from the server. This means that it works fine when you browse to it using the map, but if you refresh the page or click a link to the challenge, it will break.

What should be changed

This line is causing the problem:
https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp/blob/82ec375f19b7289d0d9b996fc19f04bcff71fa6e/seed/challenges/01-responsive-web-design/basic-css.json#L50
Specifically, this part:

<code>color</color>

should be

<code>color</code>

@alysabax @renisalcedo Hi! This issue is indeed still present on https://beta.freecodecamp.org. This is because since it has not been updated since I merged @renisalcedo's fix. I can confirm that the fix worked when I tried it out locally. It should start working on the beta site as soon as it's updated, which I expect to be within a couple of days (usually when a major update/fix happens).
