Creating links from contact icons
-
Hiya,
Rather than use a contact form on my site, I’d like to have a group of icons which the user can select depending on how they want to contact me. I created a couple of icons and added them to the contact page as images…but of course when clicked on they just open up as images. How do I, for eg, set the ‘envelope’ icon up so when selected an email window opens?
Cheers in advance!

You prepend the link URL with:
mailto:Thanks for your help Andrew. Sorry if the answer is obvious, but how I do I find that HTML snippet that you sent the link to? I can access the CSS via Editor but not sure how to find/amend the HTML…
When you said:

How did you make them clickable if they’re just CSS images?
I just added them into the page from the media library…and noticed this morning that when I clicked on them they opened up as lightbox images (which my portfolio images do)..
I think I will keep the icons as non-functioning and just have the address be the link- so it’s just a case of how I keep the image flat and non-clickable, and how I would find/amend that HTML
Any help massively appreciated! I’ll learn these things eventually…Cheers!
