• Great plugin thanks so much!

    I am running 2011 WordPress v 1.5 and have custom designed it. I have added your Shortcode Ultimate plugin and was wondering how can I add my email link to your animated button on my Contact page? http://www.worksofbart.com/

    When I add the email link with the WP dashboard to the words in the button, it works, but the button disappears behind the link. I just want the “button” to link to the email.

    So I tried the code below, and it did not work it took my to the home page. I explained exactly what I am doing below I want this button not to link to a page but to open an email link on click. Can you please tell me what am I doing wrong?

    This is the code I’m using now to get the animated button to link to an email window: (not working this links to Home page)

    [su_animate type=”flipInY” duration=”1.5″ delay=”0.5″][su_button onclick=”mailto:[email protected]?subject=Requesting a design proposal” background=”#FF7800″ size=”5″ radius=”5″ icon=”icon: chevron-right”]Tell us about your next design project we’d like to help[/su_button][/su_animate][su_spacer size=”35″]

    How I came up with the code above?

    I replace it this:
    url=”http://worksofbart.com/contact-us-today/”

    …with this email code:
    onclick=”mailto:[email protected]?subject=Requesting a design proposal”

    With this code the Contact page button links to my Home page not the email. Is updating to 2011 WP v1.7 required? I want a click to open an email. Can you see what am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello there,

    Could someone please respond to my Shortcode Ultimate question above about adding an email link inside your animated “flipInY” effect? The effect works great, but I can’t get it to link to an email on click. I can make it link to other pages or urls.

    My contact page where the animation is in effect: http://worksofbart.com/contact-us-today/

    I tried adding this code to make it link to a persons email client when clicked on, it did not work. What am I doing wrong?

    [su_animate type=”flipInY” duration=”1.5″ delay=”0.5″][su_button onclick=”mailto:[email protected]?subject=Requesting a design proposal” background=”#FF7800″ size=”5″ radius=”5″ icon=”icon: chevron-right”]Tell us about your next design project we’d like to help[/su_button][/su_animate][su_spacer size=”35″]

    Thanks for any help you can provide.
    Bart
