Am I just missing something, or is there no longer an action to set up a hyperlink to "send email"?

This forum link doesn't work, now that the forums have moved off of "community.trivantis.com." It's maddening that this functionality is gone (and that "mailto:[email protected]" doesn't work with a "Go to web" hyperlink, as it does in other programs). I hope eLB can find a way to hook up old referral links to where they need to go in the new forum site!wheels said:We removed it because it had inconsistent behavior, and we didn't think anyone was using it.

Guess I'll have to keep digging for a solution...no idea why Trivantis or eLearning Brothers didn't think anyone was using it!0 -

Put "send text from lectora" in the search.
That's what I have been doing, it is frustrating, hope this helps.

Thanks! I had tried that, but had used "send text from lectora to an email" and it didn't work. When I tried shortening it, as you suggested, it did. It's annoying that I had to do that, but I'm glad it worked at least!

I just noticed that this thread is in the Lectora Online forum, not the Lectora Desktop forum. Would the solution to the problem of wanting to have a "mailto" link be different? Do I need to repost to the other forum?0
