Any quick fixes to enable a hyperlink wrap on the phone number so that you can click to dial? Looking for something like:
```
<a href="tel:18005643148">800-564-3148</a>
```

There is an Addon in Theme Tailors that might do what you want.

$9 bucks down the drain… This is an additional widget, I just want to turn the current phone number into a clickable number. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hello, go to: wp-content/plugins/geodirectory/geodirectory-functions and open the file custom_fields_functions.php

find this block around row 1950:
```
$html = '<div class="geodir_more_info '.$geodir_odd_even.' '.$type['css_class'].' '.$type['htmlvar_name'].'" style="clear:both;"><span class="geodir-i-contact" style="'.$field_icon.'">'.$field_icon_af.
							$html .= (trim($type['site_title'])) ? __($type['site_title'],GEODIRECTORY_TEXTDOMAIN).': ' : '&nbsp;';
							$html .= '</span>'.stripslashes($post->$type['htmlvar_name']).'</div>';
```
and replace with:
```
$html = '<div class="geodir_more_info '.$geodir_odd_even.' '.$type['css_class'].' '.$type['htmlvar_name'].'" style="clear:both;"><span class="geodir-i-contact" style="'.$field_icon.'">'.$field_icon_af.
							$html .= (trim($type['site_title'])) ? __($type['site_title'],GEODIRECTORY_TEXTDOMAIN).': ' : '&nbsp;';
							$html .= '</span><a href="tel:'.$post->$type['htmlvar_name'].'">'.stripslashes($post->$type['htmlvar_name']).'</a></div>';
```

Hi, the same you did the first time, replacing that code in the custom_fields_functions.php file.
I will try to add a function so it will be persistent, the previous solution was rough and not a good idea.

You actually did it for me Simone, that’s why I asked.

I can re-do this for you but…the “old” solution is not advisable.

I’ll call Stiofan and ask for help, I’ve been struggling with the code and can’t make a function ;(

What happens with the old situation? Should I do it?

Stiofan added the feature to the core, and it will be available in the next release.
