Email link to outlook

Hi Guys,

Can anyone tell me how to make the email address in my footer (inserted in theme options) into a link so it will open there chosen email client software?

Thanks

 

Is there not somewhere in the editor that the email address can be made into a link?

 

For this Go to the
Theme directory > front-page.php
and edit front-page.php as instructed below.
Paste the code

Code:

<div class="grid_7">
<div class="index-info-two">
<a href="mailto:<?php if (inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_email_add') != '') { ?>">
<span><?php echo stripslashes(inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_email_add')); ?></a></span>
<?php } else { ?>
<span><?php _e('[email protected]','andrina'); ?></span>
<?php } ?>
</div>
</div>

inplace of

Code:

<div class="grid_7">
        <div class="index-info-two">
            <?php if (inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_email_add') != '') { ?>
            <span><?php echo stripslashes(inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_email_add')); ?></span>
            <?php } else { ?>
            <span><?php _e('[email protected]','andrina'); ?></span>
            <?php } ?>           
        </div>
    </div>

Hi,

Can it add my email address automatically so they don't have to type it in?

Thanks

Hello,

Could you please clarify your issue.

 

HI
I have inserted the code you said above but when I click my email address on my home page it opens a blank outlook email but does not fill in the "To" section on the email. The customer would have to go back to my website and copy and paste the email address in. Is there a part in the coding that I can enter my email address so it auto fills in the email "To" section when they open it?

Thanks,
Gareth
