Greetings, I'd like to add "Contact Us" to the footer. When a user click "Contact Us", it will open a email client and mailto feedback@mycompany.com. I have tried add 'ContactUs' to the line of "$footerlinks" in ./skins/MonoBook.php, and created a page called MediaWiki:ContactUs in which the content is only a line of [mailto: feedback@mycompany.com Contact Us]. But I couldn't see "Contact Us", or "ContactUs" at the footer at all. Any idea would be appreciated, Ross

Try changing Mediawiki:aboutsite to "Contact Us" and Mediawiki:aboutpage to mailto:feedback@mycompany.com
Thank you Platonides, but it doesn't work as I expected. When I click "Contact Us", I am redirected to the Mediawiki:aboutpage PAGE which has the mailto:feedback@mycompany.com link in the page. So, I have to click the mailto link to again get a mail client open. What I want is that clicking the "Contact Us" would directly open the mailto link. Is it possible? Thanks again, Ross
