Adding Skype ID

In custom fields we have added an option to add a Skype ID to a listing so when you click the Skype icon it asks to send a contact request from me to the listing owner.

We have set it up like this: Use this format: skype:SKYPE_ID?add.

See also attached image.

It would be better if the user could just put their Skype ID in without seeing or adding the coding.

What do we need to do with the coding to set this up?

thank you

 

Hello molatin,

For this open "single-listing.php" and paste code given below as shown in the image.

Code:

elseif ($field == 'ENTER YOUR HTML VARIABLE NAME HERE') {
                                                            echo '<a href=skype:' . get_post_meta($post->ID, $field, true) . '?Subject=subject here&Body=bodytext>' . get_post_meta($post->ID, $field, true) . '</a>';
                                                        } 

Thanks & Regards
