contact_form 1.4.0 for newbe

Hy

Im absolute novice on php , excuses for this easy questions for programmers but I need some help from you , excuses for my poor english too :( .

Actually I have activated contact form plugin

I just want that the album viewer can send and email if he wants.....

www.imasoft.es/varios/album.tiff

as you can see on this demo the upper size of the page says ( contact ) , spanish .. xD .

So I have edited php on edit options but I think Im doing somethis or all wrong , I paste a litle to show how I think it works :

-I should edit index.php and album php ---- thats right ??

here is the line :

<div id="footer">
Contacto

Well link works but nothing happen , I also have edited plugin options and fully filled .

So what can I do to make it working properly ???

Thx for help , much appreciated.

    The contact form is a plugin that provides a function (like most plugins do) you can/have to place on a theme page to get that form.

    I strongly recommend to read and understand the theming tutorial and look at standard themes how they do it. You should know the basics first.
  • Well its hard to understand but I think this is the way , let me know which step is wrong please.

    As you can see on link I have selected Simple+ Theme

    www.imasoft.es/varios/active-simple+.tiff

    I have selected contact_form plugin , activated and selected options I need

    www.imasoft.es/varios/contact-form.tiff

    Then I go to edit simple+ theme

    www.imasoft.es/varios/theme_editor_0.tiff

    I choose to edit index.php and album.php

    www.imasoft.es/varios/theme_editor.tif

    But here, just opens a new page on browser without anything.

    Any Information is much appreciated

    You apparently neither read and understand the theming tutorial nor did you look at the standard themes how they use the contact form.

    You NEVER include a plugin file that way anway. You add the THEME FUNCTION the plugin provides where you want to display/use it.

    If you don't understand this I recommend to stop working on a theme and really learn the basics of PHP first.
  • OK , I am photographer

    I understand that its hard or impossible to give ( free )support to someone like me , who does not have any basses about php , CSS ,etc...., sorry for that but

    I am interested if you ( acrylic ) developer or any can give payed support for example via PayPal , for that theme modification that I need to show my photo works .

    Thx for information

    Paid support is of course possible. You find my e-mail address on maltem.de
  • looks like maltem.de contact link doesn't work.

    can you email me to my email registration to forward you ?

    THx again

    Of course not there is no "contact link". If you typed "maltem.de" in your browser address bar you would find an e-mail-address on that page (a little modified because of spam).

    I have sent a mail to you.
