  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-07-31)
  
  We are not wanting to have the links on a profile view page to query the data. For instance, an email link should be 'mailto:' and not search function. I viewed the page as see
  
  ```
  <!-- .tpl file invoked: CRM/Profile/Page/View.tpl. Call via form.tpl if we have a form in the page. -->
  
  ```
  
  as the template but in the code I do not see how to change. Alternatively, removing all link on the view profile page would also work.

  You can simply set a field's Visibility setting to `Expose Publicly` and it will not use the field as a search function.
  
  From the Visibility field helper text:
  
  > When visibility is 'Expose Publicly and for Listings', users can also
  > click the field value when viewing a contact in order to locate other
  > contacts with the same value(s) (i.e. other contacts who live in
  > Poland).
