phpwcms Support Forum

Hi

I have to make a contact form which is illustrated with pictures and contents various tables. How can I realise this with phpwcms? Can I addapt the layout of the contact form?

Until now I've tried to make a normal contact form with the concerning module and switched it invisibe. Then I made my own form layout with the same parameters of the formular fields. But it did not work until now...

Thanx for your answer


Hallo

Ich möchte ein spezielles Kontaktformular mit eigenem Layout erstellen. Nun habe ich gedacht, ich könne einfach ein eigenes designen mit den gleichen Formularnamen und Angaben wie dasjenige, das ich in einem Contentpart E-Mail Kontaktformular habe, dann mein Formular als HTML Part einfügen und anschliessend das Kontaktformular auf unsichtbar schalten. Das klappt nun leider nicht. Wie kann ich sonst das Formular des Contentparts E-Mail Kontaktformular unsichtbar machen?

Oder bin ich so oder so auf dem Holzweg mit dieser Lösung?

You can see the form here:

But the form doesn't work...


When the content part contact form is visible, the whole thing works but i don't want to see the original form from the content part contact form but only my own html content part.

Kann mir niemand helfen oder versteht man die Frage nicht?

Is there nobody who can help me?

You are not being very clear about your problem.
To the page visitor, it looks like it just submits.
Give a ~little~ more description and someone may jump in to help.
What is it NOT doing? What IS it doing instead? ETC...

It is a Mail Form. And optically it works but I don't receive the mail.

The idea was to create a html form in a html content part which sends a mail to me. So I first created a form with the content part e-mail contact form. Then i set it invisible and implemented a html content part form with the same field names. I thought that in this way the form would send the mail to me too. But there is no Mail and also no Answer message.

Now the question: How can I make an e-mail form that looks optically like I want (and not how the content part e-mail contact form wants)? Or how can I integrate text tables within the contact form?

I finally found a solution.

First you make an article with the form fields you want without the special layout.

Then look at the form in the browser and copy the form html text from the source code.

Then you adapting the form for your special layout in Dreamweaver. Take care that you adapt action=[old articles adress] in your <form>-tag.

Finally you put this as a html content part in another article.

This should be included in the Docu!

Great information for us to have.

use 1.2.8 - there you have the chance to work with custom fom layout - but based on form logic of phpwcms.

A much improved version will be released tomorrow.
