If you want to create an entirely new contact form, I just released a Flexible Form extension that could do this. You can see it here:

Nice addition Johnathan but i was hoping for a bit of additional code to add one more field to the standard contact form ie(telephone number).This question has been posted a few times by various people with no answers. Surely OC should include such a basic request for someones telephone number in case the vender needs to discuss anything further before they purchase. :-\

Thats it, but instead of "surname" i would like "Tel." Have you the code?
Cheers :)

Thanks Steve, that pointed me in the right direction and i have now sorted it! Her is what you do:
cat/view/theme/default(your temp)/template/information/contact tpl.
Find

Code: Select all

<tr>
            <td><?php echo $entry_name; ?><br />
              <input type="text" name="name" value="<?php echo $name; ?>" />
              <?php if ($error_name) { ?>
              <span class="error"><?php echo $error_name; ?></span>
              <?php } ?></td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td><?php echo $entry_email; ?><br />
              <input type="text" name="email" value="<?php echo $email; ?>" />
              <?php if ($error_email) { ?>
              <span class="error"><?php echo $error_email; ?></span>
              <?php } ?></td>
          </tr>
And replace with

Code: Select all

 <tr>
            <td>First Name:<br />
              <input type="text" name="name" value="" />

              </td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td>Telephone:<br />
              <input type="text" name="telephone" value="" />
              </td>
          </tr>
          <tr>

            <td>E-Mail Address:<br />
              <input type="text" name="email" value="" />
              </td>
You can obviously change "telephone" for "surname" etc to suit. ;)
