Contact Us - to add extra fields

[wancy]

Hi,

 

At the Contact Us page, currently, it consists of Full Name, email address and comment fields. Now, i would like to add in new extra fields.

 

May i know at which file should i refer and what should i do in the file on the code?

 

Please advice.

Lets say you want to add the customers phone to the form

 

1) In contact_us.php

find the code

if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['action']) && ($HTTP_GET_VARS['action'] == 'send')) {
$name = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_POST_VARS['name']);
$email_address = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_POST_VARS['email']);
$enquiry = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_POST_VARS['enquiry']);

if (tep_validate_email($email_address)) {
  tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $enquiry, $name, $email_address);

replace it with

if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['action']) && ($HTTP_GET_VARS['action'] == 'send')) {
$name = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_POST_VARS['name']);
$email_address = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_POST_VARS['email']);
$enquiry = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_POST_VARS['enquiry']);
$phone = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_POST_VARS['phone']); // add phone 21.6.09
// BOF multimixer//
//define variable $email_body.  if you want to add more fields do so by adding this line [ ."\r\n" . ] between the fields you wish to display and order them accordingly//
$email_body = EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_NAME . ' ' . $name . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_EMAIL . ' ' .  $email_address . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_PHONE . ' ' . $phone . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_MESSAGE . ' ' . $enquiry;
//define variable $from_email. Set to Store owner email address as defined in Admin panel. If you want mails to be sent from customers mail address, set it to email_address//
$from_email = (STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS);
//EOF multimixer //

//BOF Multimixer//
// $enquiry replaced by $email_body Includes $email_body to message instead of $enquiry. $email_address replaced by $from_email Email is getting send from $from-email instead of $email_address//
if (tep_validate_email($email_address)) {
  tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $email_body, $name, $from_email);
  //EOF multimixer//

 

2) In the same file,

find the code

 <tr>
			<td class="main"><?php echo ENTRY_EMAIL; ?></td>
		  </tr>
		  <tr>
			<td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('email'); ?></td>
		  </tr>

add after

  <tr>
			<td class="main"><?php echo ENTRY_PHONE; ?></td>
		  </tr>
		  <tr>
			<td><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('phone'); ?></td>
		  </tr>

 

3) In file includes/languages/yourlanguage/contact_us.php add anywhere befote last ?>

// mm 23.6.2009
define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_NAME', 'Name:');
define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_EMAIL', 'email:');
define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_PHONE', 'Phone:');
define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_MESSAGE', 'Message:');

 

You will have the phone in the form, and the phone send by email. In this configurations mails are send from Store owners mail address

 

Hope it works for you
