Adding email link to header

By Susie, 9 years ago. Last reply by Susie, 9 years ago.

Hi,
How are you?
I’m just trying to add an email address to the header area on my site www.turnaboutmodelling.com. I’ve had a look at the Widgets and added a text widget but maybe not correctly. The text shows up but doesn’t seem to be an active link?
Can you please help?
Thanks!
Susie

    Hi Susie

    I am seeing some issues with your page. Could you please post the contents of the text widget inside code tags ( see beneath the reply box for details ).

    Thanks

    Hi Magnus,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
    In the Header widget I put [email protected] under text and [email protected] under title. Sorry I haven’t tried to do this before.
    Thanks

    Hi Susie

    Did you enter any html code or speech marks into the widget, either in the title or the content boxes

    Hi Magnus,
    No I tried adding mailto: then the email address but it just displayed as text.

    Hi Susie

    Please remove the widgets you have added to the sidebar and add a visual editor widget. Leave the title blank and enter only your email address to the main section. Then click on the link button above and in the URL enter

    mailto:youremailaddress

    If you do not see the visual editor option you will need to install the Black Studio TinyMCE Plugin.

    Let us know how you get on
