contact us page

Personally I think it would be fine if we could make contact us form on our page. It would help webmasters a lot and they should not worry about other 3rd party contact us forms. Currently working on this form and making 2 options for it. They are:
send contact requests via emails
write to database and view in admin panel

I think both could be useful

Done. It can be checked on our demo contact page

Third option would be the best - do both: send an email and store the message.

Or add a function in the admin panel where I can chose how to receive my messages: via email or database...

If this is too complicated please make contact form to send an email.

C'mon guys, I've been complaining about the contact form of eSyndicat forever - no email!

Imagine you have to manage 10-15 sites or even more - you can't keep on logging in to admin panels just to check if there are any new messages.

What can I do to convince you that a normal contact form that sends out emails is a MUST for a website?

Why don't you take a poll and see what other users think:

- No contact form
- email contacts
- messages in the admin panel
- both options (selected from the admin panel)
- I don't care

Please!

Thank you for suggestion, Sergey, we'll do it immediately.

Well, if you want this feature, download this file contacts.php.txt, rename it to contacts.php and upload on your web server, root directory of xooArticles.
Then go to admin CP->Manage Database and run query

INSERT INTO `{prefix}configs` VALUES (NULL, 1, 'contact_notif', 'Admin Panel', 'Admin Panel,Email,Admin Panel & Email', 'select', 'Contacts request type', 14)

Default, contacts request still only in admin CP, if you want read its by email, go to Configuration->General and set 'Contacts request type' to 'Email'.

Thank you Sergey,

I have tested this modification and it is working perfectly.

I will try to do a little tweaking with the title and reply address.

Please include this mod as default option in the next version.

Just one more suggestion - all fields should be cleared after form has been submitted.

Thanks again!

[Sergey Hmelevsky]

Thank You, for sensible suggestions.

Sergey, I have a contact page already, is that because you put it in mine whilst experimenting? Or is that standard? I haven't actually tested it, i am assuming emails come to me...

Better go check

[Sergey Hmelevsky]

'Contact Up' is implemented from first version of xooArticles, but admin canned read contact requests only in admin CP (as you), but now admin can choose in what way he will be notified about new contacts requests.

Ooo I am back here again, I don't get my emails via contact to my email address, now i can't remember if this was done or not, if not Sergey, what do I need to put in code wise just to have the contact email forwarded to me?
