Using email plugin for form...

[cheyennemtnman]

trying to embed this in the message
<p>Email:<a href="mailto:{table_name___email_address}"></a> Phone:<a href="tel:{table_name___phone_number}"</a></p>
Does not seem to work... Am I missing some quotes? or format incorrect?

Please use correct <a syntax
Email:<a href="mailto:{table_name___email_address}">linktext1, e.g.{table_name___email_address}</a>
Phone:<a href="tel:{table_name___phone_number}">linktext2</a>

And depending on your element settings you better use _raw

Well, it seems that I had the phone number with a format that includes (999) 999-9999 x____ which tel: does not like... Does that mean I will have to use JS to get it down to the 10 digits that I need to use tel:?

Tested it with unformatted number but I get a 404 error with Phone:<a href="tel:{table_name___phone_number_raw}">linktext2</a>

http://site.com/portal/tel:9999999999 when I want just this - tel:9999999999 for email reader to click and call from their device if available

Email works fine

How and where are you testing this?
There is no way that an email client could cause a <a href="tel:9999999999">linktext2</a> to open in a browser with the URL http://site.com/portal/tel:9999999999.

Number of digits shouldn't matter. And it's best to add country code with a prefix, e.g. like:
<a href="tel:+1999999999">+1 999 999 999</a>

And if you are using the link in form e-mail plugin's "Message text", it seems to be adding base url to href links.

I would try to use PHP template (3 rows upwards from "Message text" option) for the e-mail message where this could probably be avoided.

That is what I thought.... This is actually a web-based email client (roundcube)

 

[juuser]

It's nothing to do with the e-mail client. Fabrik form e-mail plugin is adding the base url (http://site.com/portal/) in front of the link which "breaks" the "tel" functionality.

 

[cheyennemtnman]

Okay is there a workaround such as you suggested in your previous post?

 

[juuser]

Try PHP-template like suggested above.

 

[cheyennemtnman]

Okay so have to create a custom Php template then
