We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!
We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.
You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.
While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.
We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.
Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!
Hello. Is it possible to add the "tel:" prefix on a telephone number so that it becomes a link for users to click on it while they are on their mobile device?
Thank you.
Alex
Hi, Alex.
Thank you for purchasing our plugin.
HTML5 includes protocols such as tel: and mailto: that browsers can use. Browsers respond differently to these protocols. Some will launch the phone app and add the number to the display while waiting for you to click the Call button. Others will make the call, while others will ask if it’s okay first.
- You can create "call-able" links anywhere on your site, as well as inputting them in a cell of a wpDataTable, as a data type of "string", and it will be rendered as HTML.
Add the code as text to the location you want the link to appear:
Href=tel: creates the call link. This tells the browser how to use the number.
“Tel: 123-456-7890 “creates the HTML phone number. The number within the quotes is the number it will call.
The number within the >< tags is the visual portion and it can be anything you want it to be including the phone number, a line of text such as “Click to Call” or “Call Now”, or any other call to action you want. It should be descriptive of what’s going to happen when they click.
Displaying a message instead of the number would look like this:
Your visitors will see the text but when they click on it they see the dialling screen of their phones with your number ready for them to click the call button.
- If you need any more assistance regarding this, please contact us further.
Kind Regards,
Miloš Jovanović
