I have entered the code
skype:profilename?call

All I get is an error in a modal box saying
This content failed to load.

What do I need to do?

Hi

It isn't strictly speaking social media - it will be looking for a url to load a webpage

I get that it is looking for a url. The only way I have seen on google is to use an href tag - so how does one put an href tag into a url?
