These steps have been updated for Drupal 10.

Steps to Add an Email Link

1. Log in to Drupal via the Tools & Quick Links > My Account (Drupal).
2. Go into the page you'd like to add the email link to by clicking Edit in the top right hand corner of the page.
3. Type the text you want linked in the Body field.
4. Highlight that text.
5. Click the link icon in the tools menu.
6. In the URL tab, type mailto: plus the email address you would like linked — no spaces.
   1. Example - mailto:websupport@sdstate.edu
7. Click the green checkmark to save the link.
8. Saving the page: From dropdown next to "Change to:" choose one of the following statuses:
   • Ready to Review: If it is ready to be published.
   • In progress: If you want to hold on publishing or are still editing.

Tips:

1. To add text to the Subject line of the email, after the email address enter ?subject=plus the text you want in the subject line. Example - mailto:websupport@sdstate.edu?subject=Web Help
2. Do not spell out an email address on a page - link to a name or text.
