I downloaded the BETTER CONTACT US.rar
Where should I paste the uksb_better_contact_form.xml file?
Please help.

Firstly download vQmod and then place that file in vqmod/xml

I have v1.5.2.1.

The vQmod changed the form to have the required field and it changed the field names.

It did not add the telephone or subject text area and it also does not auto fill the user names.

Any ideas on this?

It isn't working for me. I added the xml file to my shop's vqmod folder, but I still see the old contact form. And the turing image is absent!

I have updated the form for 1.5.3.1, but I am stuck with the subject..... I get Enquiry #, where # is the counter for the order the form was submited....

Have a look and see if you can fix it.

i am having trouble with this mod.

first, for some reason, i couldn't install the vqmod app to install mods... so i edited the files as directed by the XML file.

as a result, i see the "old" form on the page, but with the required field views... no telephone, no subject lines. when i hit "send," i get this error:

Notice: Undefined index: subject in C:\Sites\Single24\jobilu\webroot\opensoul\upload\catalog\controller\information\contact.php on line 223

This corresponds to one of the mod's edits:

if ((strlen(utf8_decode($this->request->post['subject'])) < 6)) {
$this->error['subject'] = $this->language->get('error_subject');
}


Can someone please help? It's keeping me from moving on with the site... thank you!

Thank you very much for the info.

I downloaded Simon's vqmod files, but did not work at first. Until I changed "uksb_better_contact_form.xml" according to your reply, everything works very good.

BTW, I am using opencard 1.5.4.1, host Hostpapa. Hope this information is helpful to the others as well. :)

replace this line (at about line 28)

Code: Select all

<search position="replace" offset="1"> <![CDATA[$mail->setSubject(sprintf($this->language->get('email_subject'), $this->request->post['name']));]]></search>
with this:

<search position="replace" offset="1"> <![CDATA[$mail->setSubject(html_entity_decode(sprintf($this->language->get('email_subject'), $this->request->post['name']), ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'));]]></search>

Same here. I thought it was the template so i edited the xml file replacing default with the name of my custom template, but it didn't make any difference.

Any suggestions welcome.

How can I change it from Telephone to Order Number and make it required? As a side note, it would be great if when they start typing their name, it will bring up their name and then input their email address and let them pick the order number they are inquiring about.

I have two questions. Would really appreciate some assistance.

-How can i make the name field prefilled with both name AND surname of client when signed in?

-How can I get rid of "Enquiry must be between 10 and 3000 characters!"

Thank you

I am putting this here in hopes that it helps someone. I have updated and modified the VQMod in the OP.

I have made the following changes:
1) Modified to work with OpenCart 1.5.6.1(and later).
2) Modified wording to sound more natural (and American).
3) Added the user-filled "subject" into the body of the email.
4) Made the email easier to read with spacing and headers for Subject and Body.
5) Added the following content to the email(thanks to the person who posted the code for these earlier in this thread):
- Line at top that says email came from Contact Us form
- Date and Time when submitted
- Customers User Agent
- Location of form being filled out
6) Modified email's subject to start with "CONTACT US - " instead of "Enquiry: " so that it stands out better in the inbox.
7) Removed store owner line from store address.

I've left the original credits at the top of the modified VQMod file.

Enjoy!

Thank you very much for the updated files.

I've downloaded it and have dropped it in the vqmod xml folder and am in the process of trying to get it to work with me template, however I'm running into a problem I'm wondering if anyone might be able to help with. First it told me there was an error with the "message sent" message so I made the two files match up verbiage then this happened:

Code: Select all

REQUEST URI : /index.php?route=information/contact
MOD DETAILS:
   modFile   : /home/MYSITE/public_html/vqmod/xml/uksb_better_contact_form.xml
   id        : A Better Contact Form
   version   : 3.0
   vqmver    : 2.1.4
   author    : http://www.opencart-extensions.co.uk

File Name    : catalog/view/theme/theme324/template/information/contact.tpl(0)
VQModObject::applyMod - SEARCH NOT FOUND (ABORTING MOD): <?php echo $store; ?><br />
And when I remove the following lines:

Code: Select all

<operation>
			<search position="replace"><![CDATA[
			<?php echo $store; ?><br />
			]]></search>
			<add><![CDATA[
			<?php /* echo $owner; */ ?><!-- <br />
			<?php echo $store; ?><br />
			]]></add>
		</operation>
It now spits out the following error:

Code: Select all

modFile   : /home/MYSITE/public_html/vqmod/xml/uksb_better_contact_form.xml
   id        : A Better Contact Form
   version   : 3.0
   vqmver    : 2.1.4
   author    : http://www.opencart-extensions.co.uk

File Name    : catalog/view/theme/theme324/template/information/contact.tpl(1)
VQModObject::applyMod - SEARCH NOT FOUND (ABORTING MOD): <span class="error"><?php echo $error_email; ?></span>
And this at the top of the website when I submit a form:

Code: Select all

ice: Undefined index: subject in /home/MYSITE/public_html/vqmod/vqcache/vq2-catalog_controller_information_contact.php on line 246
Any advice?
