To add a clickable link, start by creating a link in the normal way, by highlighting the text to become the link and then clicking the little chain link icon on the text box tool bar.

Then, in the url box enter the following, where “xxx…” is replaced by the email address or phone number, don’t forget the international dialling code if your guests may be from overseas!

To prompt the device phone app use

tel:xxx…

To prompt the device SMS messaging app use

sms:xxx…

To prompt the device email app use

mailto:xxx…

To prompt WhatsApp use the following, but you must lose any leading zeros or the plus symbol from the number (but don’t forget the international dialing code!)

https://wa.me/xxx…
