Adding another field to the default contact form

  • Adding another field to the default contact form

    Posted 9 years 2 months ago
    • Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any info on how to add a 'Phone Number' field to the default Joomla contact form. I guess I could make a custom form with formaker but I like the default form. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
      Cheers

      We use the standard Joomla Contact form. So to modify it you have to create an override. Google "contact form override" and pick your weapon of choice ;)

    • Hi Dan, I looked at a load of 'Override' posts but none are specific to Joomla 3.xx is it the same procedure (modifying 3 files) as Joomla 2.5 ?

      I am currently going through our old posts and was wondering if you still need help with this issue or can we mark it as solved?
