How to add social media links in roundcube mails
To add social media links in Roundcube Mail, you'll need to modify the Roundcube configuration file and add some HTML code to the email signature. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Prerequisites:
- You have access to the Roundcube configuration file (
config.inc.php
). - You have basic knowledge of HTML and PHP.
Step 1: Edit the Roundcube configuration file
Open the config.inc.php
file in a text editor and add the following code at the end of the file:
$rcmail_config['identity']['signature'] = '
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p><a href="https://www.example.com">Your Name</a></p>
<p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/yourfacebookpage">Facebook</a></p>
<p><a href="https://www.twitter.com/yourtwitterpage">Twitter</a></p>
<p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/yourlinkedinprofile">LinkedIn</a></p>
<p><a href="mailto:[email protected]">Email</a></p>
';
Replace the placeholders with your actual social media links and email address.
Step 2: Save the changes
Save the config.inc.php
file.
Step 3: Restart the Roundcube service
Restart the Roundcube service to apply the changes. The exact command to restart the service depends on your operating system and web server.
Step 4: Test the email signature
Compose a new email in Roundcube and click the "Send" button. The email signature should now include the social media links you added.
Tips and Variations:
- You can customize the email signature to fit your needs by modifying the HTML code.
- You can add more social media links or other links (e.g., your website, blog, or other online profiles).
- If you want to add a logo or image to your email signature, you can use the
<img>
tag and specify the image URL. - You can also use a template engine like Twig or Smarty to generate the email signature dynamically.
Remember to test your email signature thoroughly to ensure it looks and works as expected.
