How do i add an email address link to my blog?
-
How do i put my email address on my blog so that it opens an email window when a user clicks on it? If i just add the address in the text field it comes out as plain text only. Thanks
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can simply type the mailto:(email visible only to moderators and staff) in the field you get when clicking the link button.

Oups, the forum converted my post.
a href=”mailto:xxxx”>insert your text</a
and add < before and > after the line.replace xxx by your email :)

Thanks so much for the quick answer!
As you might gather i am very new to this, so any support is really great.I want to put the email address in the “Text” widget on the RHS of the page. The “Link” button doesn’t seem to appear in that box.

oops i just saw your second answer. but the forum seems to have jumbled that up as well. i’ll try some combinations of what you wrote. thanks again.

no, my second answer works.
a href=”mailto:xxxx”>insert your text</a
add < before the line
add > after the line
replace xxx by your email
replace insert your text by whatever you need :) -

I’m sorry, I’m obviously missing something in your explanation, as i get nothing on screen.
I don’t need to add any text (“insert your text”) so i guess i can do without those two symbols. Will keep experimenting.
thanks anyway -
Hello there,
Don’t post an email address on your blog in the conventional format that spam bots can harvest. See http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2013/07/23/is-your-email-address-a-spam-magnet/ -
