Hi All, I trying to create a mailto: with a variable inside a WordPress page template
The following code is a snippet from inside a loop “have_posts()”

<?php $JobContact = get_field('job_contact'); ?>
<h3>Primary Contact: <a href="mailto:<?php echo $JobContact; ?>"><?php echo $JobContact; ?></a></h3>

I’m not sure if this is really an ACF issue, but I am getting a javascript:void(0) on the email link. I’ve tried using different field types (email & text), but doesn’t seem to make a difference. Has anyone come across this before?

Here’s the staging site where this is happening: http://cackirkwa.staging.wpengine.com/employment

Thanks for any help.

Cheers,
Jeff

If you’re behind a proxy, try disabling that (if you can).

JavaScript Void(0) is often used when, inserting an expression into a web page may produce an unwanted side-effect.
