I can't seem to find a way to have my alias be displayed as a hyperlink to contact me.

In many other peer listings people have a hyperlink as their contact. My contact is displayed as plain text.

What am I missing?

It's not clear where you are suggesting that I add the "mailto:" protocol.

If you are suggesting that I use something like the following for my contact value:
MyAlias

Then my contact value will be displayed as:
MyAlias

which does not solve my original problem.

Goto the MyTechRepublic link (top right of screen)and edit your peer listing to allow other members to contact you!!

Currently I have the following options set:
* I am included in the Peer Directory.
* I list my address and phone number with your information in the Peer Directory
* I listmy technical Q&A, favorites, and discussions with your information in the Peer Directory.
* I allow unlimited number on contacts per month via the Peer Directory.

Even with these settings, my alias is still not displayed as a hyperlink. Therefore, your suggestion unfortunately does not solve my problem.

It turns out that after help from TechRepublic Technical support, I discovered that your own contact is not displayed as a hyperlink when you view your peer profile. Your Peer directory contact is only displayed as a hyperlink when your Peer Directory entry is viewed from another account.
