For those of you who want more info in the contact form, here is my take on it.

Added - Required field indicator
Changed - First name to Name
Added - Telephone field (not a required field)
Added Message Subject field
Edited the subject seen on the email from 'Enquiry Name' to 'Website Enquiry: Subject'
Added Sender's IP Address

*NEW* Added captcha reload button
*NEW* Added - If user is logged in, name, email and telephone are auto-filled

vQmod install file + captcha reload image

With prefilled editable name, email and telephone if customer logged in With fixed non-editable name, email and telephone if customer logged in

wow! brilliant! :) Installed :)

Could you tell me how would I add the store name variable in the subject so I know which store the email enquiry came from?

Thanks for the great mod :)

Something like appending the following to the subject variable:

Code: Select all

$subject .= $this->get->config('config_name');

Improvement idea:
Shouldn't the logged in visitor not have to see the contact information input fields? Seeing as they have already submitted this info while registering.

Or even better than to hide them completely, pre-fill the boxes which apply with their data so that they can use e.g. an alternate phone number than the one in their profile.

Just perfect!
I think this is going to benefit the customer experience a lot.

Anyone noticing problems don't forget to delete uksb_refresh_captcha_images.xml if you (still) have it, as they don't play well together. It's redundant anyway having installed the better contact form mod.

Just added an alternate version to your post Kyp.

Refresh Captcha Images is built in to this mod now, so no need for the standalone version of it.

You need to check that you have the language files in your additional language.

The vQmod file does add new language defines in the English language folder.

You should inspect the vQmod xml file to find what new defines you need to also add to your other language(s).

Hi uksitebuilder,

You’ve done a brilliant job which I’ve been looking for.
As I’m still using V1.496, can I use it directly? Or what shall I change to make it work on V1.496?
Many thanks.

Daniel
