mailto as menu point isn't working anymore

[mariusjopen]

Dear @emgeoffice
I cannot open the website on the phone.
What happens if you deactivate LayTheme?

hey @mariusjopen, hey @arminunruh, is there any solution to the problem, that the mailto-link doesn't work as menu point? All the best.

Dear @jwk
on my test page the mailto works fine.

Best!

It’s still qTranslate interfering here I guess…

qTranslate seems to add a http:// in front of that mailto. Since that’s not https:// this also makes the connection to your site to be rated as not fully secure :

I’d deactivate qTranslate and stick with English for now 🙃

---

That would be my advise anyway:

As long as your site isn’t a shop or has a huge amount of sophisticated writing I’d always recommend to go international (aka. English) and drop the chore of maintaining a multi language site. You also may need a cookie banner since (I presume) qTranslate uses cookies to remember the visitors language.

Dear @edgrbnz
ah yes. qTranslate might really mess it up :-/

We will check again.

sorry i cannot reproduce this error with qtranslate-x, nor qtranslate-xt

i'm not sure if you have resolved the issue or found a workaround as your website looks good on my phone and the mailto email link works for me, it opens my email app.

have a great day!

Still doesn't work over here, though.

Oh yeah now I see it on hallobasis.com

I just looked at this---nice.com :D

Ok yea

Ok I'm using the latest version of lay theme
latest version of wordpress
qtranslate-xt

this is how i set up my menu point:

and it works correctly for me:

If u use qtranslate-x instead of qtranslate-xt, you can replace qtranslate-x with qtranslate-xt and it should work fine.
Maybe make a database backup before.

Sorry for my really late reply. Somehow it worked then and I forgot about this issue. I just didn't touch it anymore to not produce the error again. :D

Great!
Thank you for letting us know!

Best!
