Contact form questions...

Post by sarah_h »

Hi all,

I'm experiencing a few niggles with the contact form tag. I add the tag as per instructions and it's added ok but I found that I could not style the form and found out that I needed to add style='false' to the tag. Fine, now I can style it, great. But where do the validation messages come from i.e. Please enter your name etc. I need to style them. I also have other text on the contact page which tells people, 'Please use this form to send us your messages'. When the form is submitted I still see that message so it makes no sense! I think this message needs to be added to the form itself so that message will also dissapear. So can anyone tell me where to find the form so I can change things a bit.

Thanks

Sarah

p.s. where can I find the capcha module?

Sarah,

if you want more styling you might want to use the FormBuilder module instead. That is more sophisticated than the plugin, which is hardcoded.

Captcha is to be found in the dev-area, http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/captcha/
Otherwise you can install using "extensions -> ModuleManager"

Thanks Ronny

Now, I'm feeling a bit sheepish because I've looked for the formbuilder download and I can't find it!!

Sorry but could you point me in the right direction.

Sarah,

all modules and tags can be found in the DEVELOPMENT-area (upper right horizontalmenu).

http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/formbuilder/

This module can also be installed through ModuleManager, that way no downloading/transferring is required.
