[Tex/LaTex] How to add hyperlink to Awesome-CV template

Question

I use Awesome-CV template where an e-mail adress is added by \email{user@mail.com}.

The body of the command is as follows:

% Defines writer's email (optional)
% Usage: \email{<email adress>}
\newcommand*{\email}[1]{\def\@email{#1}}

How do add a hyperlink to the e-mail adress? I tried
\href{mailto:\email{user@mail.com}}{user@mail.com} but there are many errors when I try to compile.

Answer 1

You can use email as you would normally and then a

\hypersetup{colorlinks}

directly after you loaded the class. This would e.g. color the links. If you want boxes instead use pdfborder={1 1 1} or something adjusted to your liking.

See the hyperref manual for more information.

Update: As you did not understand how I meant this (following code from Overleaf template):

\documentclass[11pt, a4paper]{awesome-cv}
\hypersetup{colorlinks}

\name{Byungjin}{Park}
\position{Software Engineer{\enskip\cdotp\enskip}Security Expert}
\address{246-1002, Gwangmyeongmayrouge Apt. 86, Cheongna lime-ro, Seo-gu, Incheon-si, 404-180, Rep. of KOREA}

\mobile{(+82) 10-9030-1843}
\email{posquit0.bj@gmail.com}
\homepage{www.posquit0.com}
\github{posquit0}
\linkedin{posquit0}

...

Just proceed as usual!

Update 2: If you did not mean anything with emphasis: The hyperlink is already there, even if you just use \email. It just won't be shown as the class uses the hyperref option hidelinks.
