Hi @arminunruh , I'm having the same/similar issue today - set a link to mailto: and it straight away changes to https// instead

[openair]

address is watson-memic.be
any help / tips much appreciated :)

• I'm not sure what 'the source method' is that @jpunivers found to work

Thanks

hi @openair,

If you click on these square brackets, you can change the source code.

Here you can set a link 'mailto:openair@openair.com' like Armin explained:

It seems that this issue has returned? My "mailto:" link is no longer working on https://patternsofmigration.com/online-exhibition/ It's the styled button link towards the bottom of the page... I also tried it unstyled, with the same problem

[jpunivers]

@billykioso Can't see a problem. It works.

[billykioso]

Yes, it seems to work on my phone, but it doesn't work on any browser on my Macbook. But thank you for looking!

[arminunruh]

for me it works on my safari on macbook mh

hmm I got the same problem. Never before had any problems with this :S

[wiuf]

okay i get crazy. Google Chrome ist uptodate, Safari up to date. But mailto link is not working.
On Tablet & Iphone it's no problem in both browsers :S

[jpunivers]

@wiuf hi, just post your url and i will have a look.

[arminunruh]

does the link in the code look like this?

<a href="mailto:myemail@gmail.com">hello</a>

specifically the href part?
if yes, the code is correct. maybe there is no app configured to open the mailto link

when creating a mailto link with lay theme i see the code is correct. make sure to also use the latest lay version and then create a link
