    Hi,
    I have added a place field for booking purposes. This field in some cases links to booking url and in other cases sends an email depending on the booking procedure of places (via booking url or email).
    The issue is that mailto links do not work.
    Could you please help me?

    I suggest you allow both a URL and an email field, so your users can choose.

    But I do not want to show the booking email. Is there a chance to show an online contact popup with a hidden email address as the default custom field?
    Thanks.

    That is how the default email field works, it creates a contact form in the sidebar with a hidden email address.
    Thanks

    But I need 2 different email fields because emails are going to be sent to different email addresses. How can I do it?

    Hello,

    Why are they being send to two different email addresses? There are ways to do it but i don’t understand why?

    Hi,
    Email address for reservation and email address for contacting are different. I want users can contact using a poup with a hidden email address in both email fields and if it is not possible then users could send email directly (mailto) al least.
    So users should have an email field just for contacting/asking info, and 2 fields for reservation: booking url and/or email address.
    Thanks.

    Is this just for one listing or all?
    Would you not be best using one email for the form and adding the other for the email to show?

    For all listing.
    I just want users can contact places using email contact addresses and make reservations using booking url and/or reservation email, but I need to avoid the user copy email address to clipboard and goes to their email client to send and email.
    Thanks.

    I am not 100% sure what you want but you can create new forms
    https://wpgeodirectory.com/formidable-forms-in-geodirectory-tabs/

    Or you can simply add a email field to the form to display.
