 * I assumed that when I typed in my email address in the header section labeled“
   Email Address”, that it would generate a hyperlink. It does not. Can it?

 * Hi,
 * by default, the e-mail address isn’t clickable in order to protect against spam.
   To change it, please search for the following code in “header.php”:
 * `<span class="header-contact-email"><i class="icon_mail" aria-hidden="true"></
   i><?php echo esc_html(get_theme_mod('happenstance_header_email', $happenstance_defaults['
   happenstance_header_email'])); ?></span>`
 * and edit it in this way:
 * `<span class="header-contact-email"><i class="icon_mail" aria-hidden="true"></
   i><a href="mailto:<?php echo esc_html(get_theme_mod('happenstance_header_email',
   $happenstance_defaults['happenstance_header_email'])); ?>"><?php echo esc_html(
   get_theme_mod('happenstance_header_email', $happenstance_defaults['happenstance_header_email']));?
   ></a></span>`
 * Then put this custom CSS into “Customize > HappenStance General Settings > Custom
   CSS”:
 * `#wrapper .top-navigation .header-contact a {float: none; margin: 0; padding:
   0; font-size: 13px;}`
 * Best regards,
    Tomas Toman
