Footer email link

[Christine Donalies]

Hi Bill,

I’m having difficulty linking SplashLight Marketing’s website: http://www.splashlightmarketing.com and New Earth Acupuncture’s email: health@newearthacumed.com in this footer. I’ve played with the php editor code to the best of my ability and edited it according to one of your post replies to no avail.

It appears the entire first line of text in this footer is linked as a phishing site too. Any help you can lend would be most appreciative~

Thanks in advance~
Christine

Good Morning Christine,

In HTML, an email link looks like this:

<a href="mailto:you@address.com">Visible Text</a>

where you@address.com is the email address you’d like to send to and Visible Text is what will be seen on the front end of the site by your visitors.

The fields for footer text won’t accept HTML for security reasons so you’ll need to insert them via editing the footer. In Moonrise this section displays the custom footer content:

<p class="custom-footer">
	<?php echo of_get_option('footer_text'); ?>
	<br /><?php echo of_get_option('footer_text_row_2'); ?>
	<br /><?php echo of_get_option('footer_text_row_3'); ?>
</p>

I would probably add in the link at the end of one of those rows so it’s like this:

<p class="custom-footer">
	<?php echo of_get_option('footer_text'); ?>
	<br /><?php echo of_get_option('footer_text_row_2'); ?>
	<br /><?php echo of_get_option('footer_text_row_3'); ?> <a href="mailto:you@address.com">Visible Text</a>
</p>

That way you can still adjust any other text via the theme options.

In Bottega this is the spot you’ll want to edit:

<div id="footer-contact">
	
	<p><?php echo of_get_option('footer_contact'); ?></p>
	
</div>

You could make it like this:

<div id="footer-contact">
	
	<p><?php echo of_get_option('footer_contact'); ?> <a href="mailto:you@address.com">Visible Text</a></p>
	
</div>

Take care,
Bill
