How to post email address with subject included 18 October 2020 at 2:45PM in Compers chat corner 5 replies 91 views

I can type the email address, using the current forum, but how do I add subject line?
I know information is somewhere in this section, but could only find a post going back last year.
Thank you

Not sure if this will help you, but the HTML goes like this:

<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=My subject goes here">TheEmailAddress or any other text</a>

Nowadays the spaces should be ok, but to be sure replace them with %20 like this:

<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=My%20subject%20goes%20here">TheEmailAddress or any other text</a>

[email protected] ?subject ABC
Have copied [email protected] into the little chain symbol above, adding mailto:  before words, then for subject do I do as I have typed above?
Thank you

here's a live example of a recent one I did
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6203205/e-23-10-win-50

so I would type CLICKY then cursor over that word, and add the relevent details mailto:[email protected]?subject=ARROWORD

to the link symbol, sometimes it goes somewhere else but usually works

EDIT: it's just another one of those things we can't do like we used to, save and bookmark just one post/reply

CLICKY
Thanks very much cornishpasty, that seemed to work, will try again next time posting an email competition.
It's not straightforward though is it?
