Hi Nick,

Thanks so much for sharing your CV template! It's so well-organized and beautiful. I really love the spreadsheet approach. I noticed one small thing -- your social media icons (aside from email) don't have clickable links.

non-clickable

This seems to be due to the fact that the hyperlinks added to the cells in contact_info in strayer_cv_data are lost when importing the data into R. I created a workaround by adding a separate column for hyperlinks within csvs/contact_info.csv and adding markdown hyperlink functionality to index.Rmd. This creates clickable links (if desired!)

Of course, in order for this to work with the googlesheets workflow you'll have to add the "link" column (see example below).

googlesheet_link_column

Not sure if you even wanted your contact info to be clickable, but if you do I hope this is useful! Thanks again so much for sharing your code. My CV is in dire need of beautification and your resources are incredibly helpful!

Best,
Brendan

@brendanhcullen Thanks for this! I was noticing the same issue, so I followed your instructions and it worked for me.

I ran into this as well. I updated the contact link with Markdown links and it worked as well:
