Creating Email Links in WordPress

So you want to publish an email address in a WordPress Post or Page. Then your readers will be able to click on the link and send you an email using Outlook etc.

Here’s how…

1. Enter your email address into your post
2. Highlight this address
3. Select the Insert/Edit link button
4. In the Link URL field, delete http//:
5. Enter mailto:your_email_address
6. Ensure that the Target is not set
7. Select “Insert”

For those who are interested, the final XHTML markup should look something like:

<a href="mailto:your_email_address">your_email_address</a>
