Adding a phone number link

To make text tappable as a phone call link, enter the URL in the format tel:080xxxxxxxx when inserting the link.

The behavior of a tel: link when tapped or clicked depends on the visitor's device. On smartphones, the default phone app will open automatically. On desktop computers, it will only work if a calling application that supports tel: links — such as Skype or FaceTime — is installed. If no compatible app is available, nothing will happen.
