Customise Lead/Contact View make email hyperlink into "mailto:"

I am not sure of the best way to achieve this, but I want to change the link action to be a mailto: link

Please advise?

Hey @chris001 I don’t think that customcode stuff works in version 8 (although I haven’t tried). So if the poster is on ver 7 that works great I use it all the time. On 8 I’m pretty sure that doesn’t work.

What is your CRM version?

There is a setting in your profile about which mail editor to use.

If I (by default) set SuiteCRM Email Client, then the code (in Contact) looks like this:

If I set it to ‘Extern Email Client’, the code looks like:

It has some implications, but maybe it matches all your requirements (and doesn’t break anything else)?
