How to add link to people picker field

Reshma Bhalekar

Hi,

I am facing one issue related to people and group field.

I have created one custom list in SharePoint online, In that I have out of the box column "created by". Now I have created one view to show some data on page. But the requirement is that whenever any user clicks on that user name which is present in created by column it should open in mail. So now I have to add "mailto:useremail" for that particular column.

Please let me know.

I have tried using Calculated column but it is now allowing to take created by column in formula.

Yes, that could be another good alternative.

ok.
Thanks Nanddeep.

What I done is that,

I have created another column and using workflow I have set the value of created by field to that column(hyperlink).

Use JSLink to override the People and Group field behavior in view mode.
