Enhanced Contact Us for 2.3.1

Ninety-one Maro · March 16, 2012

I have tried to send emails through the admin control panel, nothing is received. I've even had people here and friends try to send emails through the web site, and still nothing. The email we are using is not the domain email address, it is the one through our internet provider.

oxwivi · March 18, 2012

OK this contribution is a quick and dirty fix of pat of a 2.2 modification to work with 2.3.1 - it is still table driven.

You need to modify the hex code in stylesheet css to add the hex code of the colours you require. the colour is controlled by this line:
.infoBox {
 background: #ffffff;
}

Sorry for the late response. I changed the background color of all info related sections to the ones I'm using for my website. But certain areas are still blue, the same as in the screen shot.

Mort-lemur · March 18, 2012

OK

Try this - not tested so backup stylesheet.css first

Find:

TD.main, P.main {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 11px;
 line-height: 1.5;
}

Change to:

TD.main, P.main {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 11px;
 line-height: 1.5;
 background: #000000; 
}

Where #000000 is the hex code of the colour you want.

oxwivi · March 18, 2012

Unfortunately that did not help either.

EDIT Thinking a bit more, I remembered that for some reason it takes a whole day for stylesheet changes to be visible. So while I'm not holding my breath, I think it's possible the changes might show itself later.

Would anyone be able to point me to a contact_us for 2.2rc2a that actually works?

perhaps a 2.2 version of this fine mod?

every version in the add-ons I've been trying is broke or crappy...

Thank you!

Search the add ons there is one for 2.2

oxwivi · March 19, 2012

Yes! @Mont-lemur, it worked! It required the combination of both of your .infobox and TD.main suggestions. Still, if you will allow me to bother you further, the Contact Us heading still appears blue. It's nothing major, but it's the last wrinkle on the shirt.

Thank you for the addon and much-appreciated support!

Mort-lemur · March 19, 2012

Find:

TD.pageHeading, DIV.pageHeading {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 20px;
 font-weight: bold;
 color: #9a9a9a;
}

Change to:

TD.pageHeading, DIV.pageHeading {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 20px;
 font-weight: bold;
 color: #9a9a9a;
 background: #FFFFFF; 
}

again where #FFFFFF is the hex code of the background colour you want.

That is strange - changes should be visible straight away.

Have you tried refreshing your page using ctrl + F5 to force a server refresh? it may be your computer cache that is preventing the changes being seen.

oxwivi · March 19, 2012

Slight misunderstanding there--the background is okay, the color of the font itself was not. But changing the color option in that section corrected it, so thank you again!

oxwivi · March 19, 2012

I'm sorry but here's something troubling for the brain to burn on again.

The last thing I changed in osC code was moving the breadcrumb from header.php to template_top.php as described here. I did not change the contact_us.php as provided, and replacing it (from ECU package) again was no help either.

I did face similar issues with an information page. That was because of an extra </div> tag, but there's nothing similar in contact_us language file. And it did work properly before.

Does contact_us.php has defined it's div.padding thing or something? That's the only thing I can think of, in relation to my breadcrumb modification.

oxwivi · March 19, 2012

It wasn't the div class at fault, but the breadcrumb code itself. Removing the code from template_top corrected the form... I can't fathom the cause of the conflict.

I think there is a conflict in the fact that your moved breadcrumb is trying to occupy the same space as the contact us pageheading ie these lines of code in contact_us.php

<table border="0" summary="" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td><table border="0" summary="" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
	  <tr>
	    <td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>
	    </td>
	  </tr>
    </table></td>
  </tr>

As the contribution is table driven rather than by the usual grid system of 2.3.1

Play around with the above lines, maybe first remove them and see the impact on how the page displays, then maybe remove the first few lines etc.

oxwivi · March 19, 2012

I replaced the bit of code you mentioned with the standard osC heading line:

<h1><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></h1>

That did the trick. The whole experience with the Enhanced Contact Us has me wishing for someone kindred soul to upgrade it to 960 grids formathingy. I wish I knew enough to contribute...

♥14steve14 · March 20, 2012

I have hopefully altered the standard 2.3.1 contact us page and added store details, opening hours and a message plus recaptcha

oxwivi · April 25, 2012

Hi, does it have the same features as the current ECU ported from 2.2? I fixed the issues I had with the ported one, but still interested in a 'proper' 2.3 addon which works without issues out of the box.

kenkja · May 24, 2012

Hi All,

This seems to be just the add on I'm looking for, but, and you knew that was coming.

As a relative newcomer to owning a website, I've always been really quite annoyed by reCaptcha becuase I never really understood what its purpose is, until reading the add on install.txt(s)

So in the past I have, quite a number of times, just quitted a contact us because i had to enter a reCaptcha code, which honestly just seemed to be a pointless irritant, my guess is if I've felt that way then so have/will others.

Is it possible to add an explanation of why the reCaptcha is necessary, say

"We've added this function to purely stop automated spam e-mailers, if you go complete the reCaptcha section, we will know that you really did want to contact us and we will deal with your enquiry as soon as is possible"

Ken

Mort-lemur · May 24, 2012

Hi,

I added the re-captcha element as an option - you dont have to add that part. One of my sites was constantly being hit by automated spam and the recaptcha stopped that in its tracks.

If you want to add an explanation open catalog/includes/languages/english/contact_us.php and change line 48 :

define('ENTRY_SECURITY_CHECK', 'Security Check:');

To read:

define('ENTRY_SECURITY_CHECK', 'Your Text Here');

kenkja · May 29, 2012

Hi Heather, sorry for the delay in replying.

I got the fact that the re-captcha was optional, and did at first want to leave it out just because I was approaching it from a user (with lack of understanding) point of view, but having read further understood from the web owner point of view its defintely needed.

Thanks for your note of how to achieve a balance between the two positions

oxwivi · June 22, 2012

Hello,

I've installed this addon for a while already, but I completely skipped testing. Recently, I realized (thanks to a registered user replying to welcome email) that it's not working. I used it myself, and did not recieve any email despite the success page.

oxwivi · June 22, 2012

Update, regular contact_us.php is not working either. Better make a new thread about it.

shaka · September 6, 2012

Every thing is Ok But when I press the Button Continue next page does not open. No confirmation is given to the client thaat his emaail has been deliverd aand neither any other page opens please look into

gallery4youth · September 6, 2012

Everything is OK But when I press Continue no doubt email reaches the Admin but neither any communication is shown that email has been sent nor any other page open.

vourlismenos · October 7, 2012

A small modification, so that people that are not logged in can fill in their telephone number:

remove this line from contact_us.php

echo tep_draw_hidden_field('phone',$phone);

find this code:

<tr>
		    <td class="main"><?php echo ENTRY_EMAIL; ?></td>
		  </tr>
		  <tr>
		    <td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('email', $email, 'size="28"'); ?></td>
		  </tr>

and add under:

<tr>
		    <td class="main"><div class="crosspiece95"></div><?php echo ENTRY_TELEPHONE_NUMBER; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
		    <td class="main"><?php echo (isset($account['customers_telephone']) ? $phone . tep_draw_hidden_field('phone',$phone) : tep_draw_input_field('phone', $phone, 'size="28"')); ?></td>
</tr>

or if you want your customers to be able to edit their phone number (if already registered), add:

<tr>
		    <td class="fieldKey"><?php echo ENTRY_TELEPHONE_NUMBER; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
		    <td><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('phone', $phone, 'size="28"'); ?></td>
		  </tr>

Hi Heather,

Thank you very much for your addons. It is great. I modified it to send a quotation email as well.

there are some questions about the modified quote email. I had post but so far no one reply yet. I really need expert from forums that can help me as I am not familiar with PHP code at all. The past 2-3 months I learn osCommerce from zero knowledge to know finally make the website up. I can say I am very good at copy and paste the code from addons, but still far from writing code like you expert guys.

The website I have is a rental website which doesn't show the price. Customer doesn't register.

So I still keep the shopping cart, just doesn't show the price at all. And instead of buy me, I modified as QUOTE.

Once customer put every equipment they like to get quote in the quote (shopping) cart, then they click a button (instead of checkout), they go to a quote email which I refer your Enhanced Contact Us add on.

Here comes my questions:

1. How can I show the quote list (from shopping / quote cart) on the email?

2. How can I save the customer enter detail, such as name, mobile phone, address, description, other useful information...etc into database?

can you please write me a simple database example code that I then can go further google online and self-learning?

Many thanks in advance.

Lyn
