Thanks Monica,

 

I have now managed to get what I wanted plus a little extra :D

 

I combined

contact_us_registered.zip

and parts of

Contact_us enhancement v1-1.zip

 

Also what I have done is added an IP recorder on the form taken from

More_useful_contact_us_1.zip

 

However I would like to try and make it so that the user cant just delete their IP address

is this contrib's IP recorder in an input field?

Checkout the one used for reviews (also in contrib section), it records the IP, just letting the person know it did. No entry field to manipulate ...

Hi Thanks I have now installed that whole contrib hehe.

 

How ever my original problem of logging the ip of a person using the contact us form.

The IP contrib that I added doesnt use an input field, It just puts their IP address into the message body which the user can either edit or delete.

nah, that's useless .. do not add it there.

 

add it as a hidden form field and then in the php code right before sending the email

Lionel Blair and Una Stubs please AKA give us a clue

 

I dont know what or where the code I need to add.

 

I did try this in catalog\contact_us.php

 

			  <tr>
			<input type="hidden" name="ipaddress" value="<?php echo $ipaddress; ?>">
//IP recorder start
	$ipaddress = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REMOTE_ADDR"];
	$ip = "\n\n IP: " . $ipaddress;
	$content = $HTTP_POST_VARS['enquiry'];
	$content_ip = $content . $ip;
	$enquiry = tep_db_prepare_input($content_ip);
//IP recorder end
	<?php echo $ipaddress ?>
		  </tr>

Well I got it to display the IP Address but only after the form had been filled in incorrectly and the page had refreshed.

 

 

I have killed and in the process of reviving my database at the moment so this is now of very low importance to me.

 

Incidently I get the following error when trying to go to the admin section of my store. Front end seems ok.

 

1046 - No database selected

 

select configuration_key as cfgKey, configuration_value as cfgValue from configuration

I believe this happend because I was setting up an automated mysql backup and noticed the name of the DB was wrong. I had copied a database to make a testing ground before putting any files onto my live store (Good idea I thought) but when the auto sql was mailed it had the old DB name in. so I trollied everything and am building it up from scratch but cant seem to get in to the admin section :'(

Just wondering if everyone has managed to sort their pages out? As I've managed to add a number of optional fields/text boxes and to display the IP address in the email.

 

I'm currently working on alerts for several boxes, but not having much luck on that side as no one has made any replies to my requests for help (Click here for my post Though I've changed my code since this post). However I've found a chap on another forum who may be able to sort my alert problems be it at a cost.

 

Going back to the IP address. I haven't tried to display it deliberately on the site (as it appears in the message box), but I did find the placement of the ip address code, makes a difference to its effectiveness and where it appears.

 

The alerts are for these Full Name: E-Mail Address: Postcode: Country: and Phone Number:. I then have four optional text boxes, with 2 pre-set dropdown options, and obviouly I also have the large message box.
