No Email Form in Contact us.

[Mike718NY]

Is there an Email Form (using textboxes) on the Contact Us page?
I dont' see one and I'm surprised it's not there.
Has anyone added one to this page? I'm guessing it wouldn't be that hard to do.

I made a separate page for one instead of trying to add one to that page. It actually took a couple of hours by the time I got the user controls, the formatting, the field input validation, the other coding done. The next one wasn't as difficult.
Here's one:

Here's another form I've done that sends an email:

Did you use a AC7 utility class or function to send the email or did you
just code the whole thing like: SmtpClient mailClient = new SmtpClient .. etc?

You can use the following as a refferance

Code: Select all

Admin/Store/EmailTemplates/SmtpSettingsDialog.ascx

This control contains some test email code.
i have posted a control for test purpose in the following post
viewtopic.php?f=45&t=7414
you can use it for reference as well

Here is code I used to send the email after I collected the info from the form:
protected void SendButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Page.IsValid)
{
System.Net.Mail.MailMessage mailMessage = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
mailMessage.From = new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress(txtEmail.Text);
mailMessage.To.Add("orders@directpaintball.com");
mailMessage.Subject = StringHelper.StripHtml(DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text);
mailMessage.Body = StringHelper.StripHtml(txtMessage.Text);
mailMessage.IsBodyHtml = false;
EmailClient.Send(mailMessage);
SentMessage.Text = "Thank you for your imput. A email has been sent to DirectPaintball";
SentMessage.Visible = true;
}
}
