How can I convert a text into an email link in Webflow? I have tried enabling the link element and entering my email address in the email field, but when I click the link, it only opens a new empty tab named 'Untitled'. Please help me resolve this.

To convert a text into an email link in Webflow, you can use a combination of custom code and the native link element. Here's how you can do it:

1. First, make sure you have a text element that contains the email address you want to convert into a link.

2. Select the text element, and in the Webflow Designer, go to the settings panel on the right-hand side.

3. Inside the settings panel, scroll down to the Link settings and enable the "Open link in new tab" option.

4. Next, click on the "Add field" button below the "Email" option in the settings panel. Enter your email address in the email field.

5. Now, when you preview or publish your website, the text element should be clickable, and it should open a new email window with your email address pre-filled.

However, if you're experiencing issues where the link only opens a new empty tab named 'Untitled', it could be due to a conflict with some other settings or custom code on your page. To troubleshoot this, you can try the following:

1. Ensure that you don't have any conflicting custom code on the page. Sometimes, custom code can interfere with the default behavior of elements. Check for any code blocks or interactions that might affect the link element.

2. If you're using any custom JavaScript code that handles link clicks or modifies link behavior, make sure it doesn't interfere with the email link.

3. Test the link in different browsers to see if the issue persists across different platforms. It's possible that the issue is browser-specific.

If none of the above solutions work, you might consider reaching out to the Webflow support team or the Webflow community forum with more specific details about your project. They'll be able to provide you with more in-depth assistance tailored to your specific situation.
