I’ve tried everything I can to apply: an a href send mail to the email at the very top of the page. But when I hover over it, it shows a long url for the site such as website address/preview id etc etc. This only seems to be available for editing either as text only at the top or in the customizer under Icon Text and despite the fact that there is a link field in the customizer, it won’t accept the above href.
Other links within the body of the site I have been able to customize and get them to work as links, either to sites or email addresses. Interestingly, the email in the footer does work. But none of the hovers shows a color.
I’ve also had a problem finding where to add a hover color over links like this. There must be more than a dozen places to change or add colors but this is not one of them. The Icon Text in customizer has a text color, but that is for the static text not a hover.
These are really basic needs for any website, an email address should open the email client and there should be a hover over links setting. That has worked since the late 80’s.
Anyone have any success?

Hello,
I logged in your site and check. Now your mail link on header is working.
Thanks!

Thank you for the quick service!
I am wondering how you accomplished this. I checked with web developer inspector and see that you first used the href mailto: but you also had to add a paragraph after this to actually get the text display of the href to work. You finally closed with the </a AFTER the span. It seems kind of clunky, but it works so I am not complaining.
Was there somewhere I could have done this myself that isn’t part of the customizer.?
I am also still trying to figure out how to style the a hover correctly. I added an a hover code into the Extra CSS that I found in one of the support questions on your forum but that is a general a hover not an an href hover style. You will notice this happening when hovering over the location, hours and phone in the header. There are no href links for these, though I may need to do that in future to link to a google map, google business page link and maybe even a smart phone link.
It must be in the css somewhere but I’ve yet to find it so I can add it to a child theme.
I’ve got another problem now with this top header. Now I need to change the hours of business to 8:30am to 4:30pm and I can no longer find where I made these changes! I’ve opened customizer a dozen times but these settings: address, email, hours and phone no long show up while I am in the customizer. I know these were set in an area called Icon, but I simply can’t find where I did this anymore! This is critical to change because my client is upset the wrong times are up there.
Thank you so much!

Hi,
You can watch this video to know how to edit your information:

Thank you for the information.
I knew when I had originally entered this information it was done exactly this way. But for some reason each time after that I tried to go back and edit this again, it wasn’t showing up as available. In fact I was having trouble finding many of the edit points I had previously used.
I ended up doing a full reboot of my desktop and that was what was needed to get the customizer to begin working again. Lesson learned….

Thank you for your continued support. The site has been finished enough for the deadline for the government’s SEC paperwork requirements but I would like to work further on customizing the website by adding a child theme. I have been following a Lynda.com tutorial to do this, added my own child theme, and I am at the point where he is writing the functions.php file to do this.
I had originally started my own occamchild theme and had been coding it along with the tutorial.
But then I noticed in my downloads from Codeless that there is an pre-made Handel Child theme. I’m working locally to develop so I have temporarily activated that your child theme to see how the functions.php file is the same as my own or different. I ran a test to make sure the handel child theme was activated by adding to the style.css code: change body to gray, that worked.
So the first change needed was I saw that the logo was Handel, not Occam. So I used customizer to change that to the Occam Logo (and in the process had to increase the size of the logo to my previous choice.) The logo change took effect and I do not see that added to my child style.css so I assume that even if the theme version is updated, this will not change?
Following the Lynda tutorial to continue setting up the functions.php file in child theme, the instructor adds more code below the get_stylesheet_directory>uri …. /style.css, to array(parent-style) wp_get_theme() arrowget(version). He says he does this do ensure that the version will always be checked against the style.css theme information to avoid caching issues when there is a theme number change. I do not see this call for the version in the handel-child theme below the enqueue_scripts for the child theme. Is this a necessary change I need to add? I also see that I may need to adjust the style.css to alter the Theme URI, the latest version (which is now 1.5.1) etc.
In other words, the handel-child theme functions.php looks very different from the tutorial I am following. Do I need to continue to add this additional information to the handel child functions.php for this to work or is it written properly for any future use?
Thank you.
