  • Hidden Settings on Contact form?

    Posted 12 years 11 months ago
    • Hi there,
      I'm using J2.5/Clarion and despite looking everywhere I can't find where the following titles are enabled in Joomla for the default contact functionlity:

      At the Top of my contact form I want to switch off:

      "
      Contact

      Contact Form
      Send an email. All fields with an * are required.
      "
      And would also be grateful if anyone could point me to where I can edti the tect and size of the 'Send an email.....' text

      Cheers,

    • Goto

      Extensions>Template Manager

      Then at the top click the Templates tab (next to Styles)

      Click on the 'rt_clarion details and files'

      Goto css/template.css

      At the botttom of the CSS file add
       
      .contact h3 {display:none;}
       

      Which will remove the 'Contact' and 'Contact Form' headers.

      Add this code (with your own css rules) will let you change the text size/weight/colour of the 'Send an email. All fields with an * are required.' text
      .contact-form legend {....ENTER SOME CSS HERE...}

      Voila!

    • Merci beaucoup! Now I know why I could't find it! Thanks for the mini CSS tutorial.

      the first bit did the trick and turned off all the spurious headings. Playing with Firebug I also found where to change the text size in joomla.css, line 58

      The text for the email message was in:

      ....../language/en-GB/en-GB.com_contact.ini:COM_CONTACT_FORM_LABEL="Send an email. All fields with an * are required."
