Title: Add a Contact or Feedback page
Post by: Gizmo on March 31, 2006, 06:00:19 pm
I put together a simple contact or feedback page to add to your gallery. There is a readme.txt file that explains what needs to be modified for adding your info. It's simple and straightforward to use and easily customizable for your needs. This script does check for required info entered and that there is a "@" and "." in the senders email address.

Here are some links to explain adding new links. It should integrate into your theme without any changes other than adding a link to your menu in your theme.php and is compatible for CPG v1.3.x to 1.4.x (the ones that I use at least).

Adding Links : http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=24107.0 (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=24107.0)
Adding New Pages: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=21000.0 (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=21000.0)

This php script uses the PHP mail() function which some web hosts block the mail() function if the 'fromemail' is not from your domain. In other words: sometimes, the domain email address must be used - or the mail() function will not work. If you haven't entered a SMTP email to send ecards then this should work.

If you improve on this or have a better solution, please post it for all to enjoy. Check it out here http://www.bullseyephotos.com/sports/contact.php (http://www.bullseyephotos.com/sports/contact.php).

Cheers,

Billy

Thank you for sharing!

Works like a charm :)

But would suggest not to hardcode absolute table width's.

Hi PYAP,

Thanks for the translation and I was wondering if you had any luck in getting it to send mail in UTF-8. I will look into this further today if you are still unsuccessful.

Cheers,

Gizmo

Usually, most email clients don't come with utf-8 support. This does not only apply to this mod, but Coppermine in general. We'll need to find a way in the future to handle this. Currently, it's a know issue (or bug if you want) in Coppermine.
