How can you make an email address active on a modern SharePoint page?
- Apr 21, 2020
ChristyRoachI've used both the Button and the Call to Action web parts to add an email link.
In the link, put "mailto:emailaddress"
I was trying to do the same thing and the field will not allow me to add an email address, I have https:// and it won't allow me type mailto:emailaddress over it.
Do you have any suggestions? ChristyRoach

You can see it in action at the bottom of this page. https://usbank.sharepoint.com/teams/SRC/SitePages/CCB-LIBOR-transition-support.aspx?csf=1&web=1&e=qC5cJahttp%3A%2F%2F
