Sharepoint Communications Site and mailto email link - sharepoint

I am trying to add a mailto link to my communication site within SharePoint. I have looked extensively on the web, but found no help in this area relating to a communication site. I see for other types of SharePoint sites it's possible. I think we are using SharePoint 2016. Is it possible to add a mailto link to a communication site within SharePoint?
Any help much appreciated.

Late but for anyone else add mailto: followed by the email address to a link in a text web part...

Is there any way to unhide the Search Box on SharePoint Suite Bar while I am open page from pages library?
Please let me know your thoughts on the same.
Thanks in Advance.
It looks like you created modern team site but the page is in classic mode (may be it is a wiki page).
In classic sharepoint site search box is at right. In modern pages and sites, it is on top.

How to publish a static web site to SharePoint

My CI pipeline generates a static HTML website via Asciidoctor. I would like to upload it to SharePoint (Office 365 edition) to be served as content rather that stored document and to be indexed for searches.
I'm completely new to SharePoint but following some tutorials, I created a SharePoint publishing site and uploaded my page to it. However, the page is just stored as a document rather than being rendered.
I also found few articles pointing to "SharePoint web pack" but nothing specific on how to use and what they do.
Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

SharePoint Office365 - how to give access to internal websites

This has somewhat being answered here, but it's very outdated and the links given do not apply, at least the 2nd link.
We have a full license for Office 365 Sharepoint and I want to be able to create a web-part (Page-Viewer) to place an internal hosted website in an iframe.
For some reason the web-part has greyed-out the Zone and I cannot change it to Left or anything else. Why?
Is it possible to allow external users to access our Intranet and internal websites via Sharepoint and how please?
Another one of those, "I should have looked further", for the answer!

The features are there and available on Office365 to turn ON or OFF sharing of internal areas to external users. However, it is risky, not knowing really who's watching over the shoulders of people.

SharePoint Blog Template Master Page Branding

This may be a simple question, but I am having a problem with it.
I have multiple publishing SharePoint sites & sub-sites with a customized master page. I now have a sub-site based off the Blog site template. The custom master page is not being applied to it. I checked to make sure the site's master page setting it pointing to the custom master page.
Do Blog Site Templates handle master pages differently? If so, how do I brand these blog pages? Do I have to handle them individually?
Thanks in advance!
Yes the blog sites use a different masterpage. You will have to go into the blog site using SharePoint designer and create a custom master page in the gallery.
I heartily recommend using the CKS:EBE if you'll be using blogs on SharePoint. It has a multitude of improvements over the out of the box blog template including theming, trackbacks, spam protection and many others. Give it a shot!

Customize accessdenied.aspx in Sharepoint

I have a web in Sharepoint 2007. I have sites with permission for certain roles. When a user with a role that has not got permission to enter the site, Sharepoint redirects him/her to accessdenied.aspx which has Sharepoint design.
How can I change this redirection so that it goes to a customized one? I don't know if the server will be shared with other Sharepoint webs, so i don't dare to edit accesdenied.aspx directly (i have not verified if i can anyway).
I would need precise code and indications, because i am no guru of Sharepoint.
I wish I could offer you more in terms of precise code, but this website seems to have pretty clear instructions.
Hope that helps.
Check this article for the issue you face when you create your own custom access denied error page and solution proposed in my post.
