The encode global variable allows you to encode an email address for display on a web page, but appears to require that the email address be hard-coded into the variable tag:

{encode="[email protected]" title="Email Me!"}

Is it possible to have an email address entered in a Channel entry for display on a web page (e.g. to make the email addresses on a Contact Us page editable by an admin panel user) be automatically encoded?

Starting with EE 2.0.x all email addresses are encoded dynamically. So any time EE finds an email address within some content, it will encode it.

The only time you need to use the encode global variable anymore is if you want to create a “mailto:” type of link as in your example above where the email address is not displayed and “Email Me!” is instead.

Is that what you were looking for, or did I misunderstand your question?

Wow. I didn’t realize that!

Brilliant feature, of course.

Thanks!

Glad to see that explains it. Please post again as needed.
