In Contact Enhanced for Joomla 1.6 or newer this is very easy!

Go to Components -> Contact Enhanced -> Custom fields,  open the original custom field set the language to English under the Publishing Info slider and then change the name of the field for the new language and set the language to the chosen one and hit Save as a Copy and you are done.

In Joomla 1.5 it is a bit more complicated because it requires you to use Joom!Fish and it cannot translate multiple database tables per component. Please read this forum post.

Description

You can easily change the field size in any Custom Field (types: Text, Textarea, selectlist,...)

How to:

There are three ways to accomplish this:

Definition

HTML anchor < a > tag is also very useful for creating bookmark links. HTML bookmark tag links help in linking the different parts of a single HTML document. HTML bookmark tag link navigates the web page to the targeted location of same or different web page. name attribute of HTML anchor <a> tag provides the feature of bookmark links. In Contact Enhanced there are the following bookmark tags:

<a name="sidebar" ></a>

<a name="map" ></a>

<a name="form" ></a>

Usage

You can navigate to this bookmark by using href="#form" in another HTML anchor <a> tag link, the code below works within the same Contact Enhanced page:

<a href="#form">Go to Contact Form</a>

If you want to open the bookmark of another web page then you have to specify the page name also. For example you want to add a link a link to the Contact Enhanced form inside a content Article, then you can add the target bookmark link to your content article as following:

<a href="/http://yoursite.com/uri_to_the_contact_enhanced_contact_form#form">
Go to Contact Form</a>

Contact Enhanced (CE) tries to inherit most of your template's style. However if it does not fit your needs you can add a class to your css file; Follow these simple steps:

Translate Contact Enhanced Using Transifex

Contact Enhanced is already translated into some languages, if it is not translated into your language, you can translate it yourself and it is not hard to do. There are 2 language files to create to translate the component, one for the frontend, one for the backend.

These files have to be named following the convention (see a list with the most common COUNTRY-CODE):

[language-code]-[COUNTRY-CODE].com_contact_enhanced.ini

For example: en-GB.com_contact_enhanced.ini for english, pt-BR.com_contact_enhanced.ini for Brazilian Portuguese.

They have to be placed in the folder corresponding to the language and the frontend/admin part, for example:

You can set each form a different Custom Redirect.

Select a contact from Components -> Contact Enhanced -> Contacts, then set Custom redirect under the Advanced Parameters slider;

Select a contact from Components -> Contact Enhanced -> Contacts, then set Redirect under the Contact Form slider;

In the Custom Redirect  paramenter you have to write: index.php?option=com_content&view=article&task=view&id=0000, Change 0000 for the article id that can be found at article manager, or you can add any URL starting with http://

Please note that if you use an internal URL starting with index.php the Contact Enhanced will set a "Thank you note" in the System Message, however if you add an internal URL starting with http:// the System Message will not be set.

Description

With this new module we can display the contents of a category in a list layout. We can also display multiple categories.

Requirements

1. Have Contact Enhanced Component installed;
2. Have created at least one category and one contact;

The CE Feedback is a plugin that adds a Feedback image to the side of your site and when clicked it loads a feedback form using Contact Enhanced to allows any website user to leave a comment on your site. It loads in a modal window using Joomla default's MooTools modal window (SqueezeBox), so if your customer have a question about a particular page he can submit a feedback form without ever leaving the page.

You can also add the Map or display in a modal window using this code:

{loadcontact id=|ID| map=|before_form OR after_form| type=|embedded OR modal| text=|Text to that will display when type is set to modal| }

For Joomla 1.6+ you have a few additional options, Contact details and Contact image, by using this code:

{loadcontact id=|ID| map=|before_form OR after_form| details=|before_form OR after_form OR before_map OR after_map| image=|before_details OR after_details| type=|embedded OR modal| text=|Text to that will display when type is set to modal| modal_width=|800l| modal_height=|500| modal_template=|beez5| }

• id: Contact Enhanced Contact's ID to load the form; * This is the ONLY required syntax parameter;
• type: Whether or not to display the form in a modal window; Possible values: [blank], embedded, modal;
• fields: Used to pre-load one or more custom fields; add multiple fields in a URL query syntax. Example: fields=|subject=A custom subject goes here&cf_10=some text|
• Parameters only available if type=|embedded| or if there is no type parameter:
  • map: Whether to load the contact map or not. Possible values: before_form, after_form, [none];

If you enable the "Button - Contact Enhanced Form" Plugin in order to help add Contact Enhanced (CE) Form into an article. It will add a button below your WYSIWYG Editor.

Important:

• Please make sure that you have Contact Enhanced component installed correctly, otherwise the plugin will not work;
• In the Plugin Parameters (Options) set the "After form is submitted show" option in order to choose the component behavior once the form is submitted;

This screencast made by Dale covers the installation and usage of the Contact Enhanced plugin.

Please follow these steps:

1. Contact Enhanced already installs the Captcha plugin automatically. If for some reason it was not installed you need to download the free CAPTCHA plugin from our download page;
   • Install the plugin using Joomla installer, and then enable in the Plugin Manager;
2. Go to Extensions -> Plugin manager, search for "CAPTCHA" and choose which captcha library you want to use (SecurImage, reCAPTCHA or MathGuard). If you choose a library other than reCAPTCHA, please jump to step 6;
3. You will see that the reCAPTCHA requires two API keys. To get these keys you need to create an account at the reCAPTCHA website (http://recaptcha.net);
4. After registration at the reCAPTCHA website, you will be taken to a page where you can create the two keys that you need.
5. Inserted the two keys into the plugin fields;
6. Joomla 1.5: Ensure that CAPTCHA is enabled in the 'Parameters' section of the Contact Enhanced Manager;
7. Now the CAPTCHA system is ready to go, and will appear on your contact page;

Please note that in Joomla 1.5 the CAPTCHA plugin only appears to non-registred members of your website, so if you are and administrator, for example, you must log out to view it on your contact page.

Description

The extension integrates with JCE (Joomla Content Editor) and allows you to create links to:

• Contact Enhanced Categories; NEW!
• Contact Enhanced Contacts;

Contact Enhanced uses MooTools to validate the form, load the Maps and to perform effects and AJAX/JSON calls;

MooTools is the Joomla default javascript library, therefore most templates use MooTools for their fancy things such as menus and slideshows; Your template or other extensions (modules, plugins, components) shouldn't use another javascript library other than MooTools, however if it does use another library such as JQuery it might be incompatible with many MooTools based scripts; Some templates even remove MooTools calls from the output HTML, then no MooTools related scripts will work.

How to find out if your template is using jQuery:

• You can right click on your browser's window and click on "View source" and check all <script> tags inside the <head> tag; or
• Use a Firefox plugin called FireBug, to inspect the code.You can view all JS files inside the Net tab.

Solution:
JQuery can be used with MooTools, as long as the developer follows JQuery guidelines. You might want to suggest this feature to the template's developer:
http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries

Some users have reported that using a Plugin called jQuery Easy has helped them to solve the problem.

Advice:
Always choose extensions that are 100% compatible with Joomla Framework;
Avoid JQuery in Joomla based websites, this way you will avoid incompatibilities and will load less javascript, therefore your website will load faster.

Well,this can happen due to following reasons;

• PHP function mail() has been disabled or not working;
• You are running an older version on PHP in your server;
• The Sendmail Path is wrong (usually it is not the case, bacause it is typically filled in by Joomla! during the initial setup;
• You are on a local environment and don't have a mail server installed.

Here are the steps to solve it:

• Go to Admin panel > Global Configuration > Server > Mail Settings > Mailer  and select SENDMAIL there,instead of PHP MAIL FUNCTION.
• If the above point doesn't solve your issue,then the best thing is to contact your webhost and ask them to rectify the PHP Mail Function in the PHP in their server and also ask them to upgrade the PHP to the latest version, OR better yet is to use SMTP instead of PHP Mail function or Sendmail.
• You can also try to change the contact email address and remove the link to a user, for some reason this solves this issue sometimes;
• Please read this other article: Why emails are not being sent?

Not receiving your mail? It is usually related to mail server misconfiguration or security rules; Here are a few common problems to check:

1. Does your account have SPAM filters?
   If it does, check your junk mail folder (or trash, or whatever your particular program calls it.) It may have been received and filtered out. Fortunately most programs allow you to add it to a list of safe senders so it won't be filtered out in the future. If you set the mail settings to use SMTP usually solves this problem;
2. Are you sending to a legal address?
   • a) Depending on how your host has things configured, sometimes you can't send a form mail to yourself@THISaddress.com if your form is on www.THATaddress.com. You may need to setup an email that corresponds to the site you are sending from, or see if your host allows you to add your other email address as an allowed recipient. Since all hosts are different, the best thing you can do is contact them.
   • b) Special email sending requirements (e.g. the sender must be a valid email address in the website domain, whereas FormMail tries to make the email you receive look like it came From the person who filled out your form).
3. Is the Menu configured correctly?
   
   • Sometimes Contact Enhanced might not work properly when you copy the menu or just change before creating a new one. Delete the menu item and create a new one from scratch  to make sure the menu is working properly;
4. Have you been testing the "Custom reply" feature?
   • You might have set up the "Custom reply" parameter to Yes. Custom reply is to be used by advanced users in order to integrate with other systems; If you don't know what it is for, please make sure it is set to No.
5. Do you need authentication?
   When you send email from your mail program or Joomla, do you need to provide a password for outgoing mail (outgoing mail authentication?). If you are unsure because you set up your mail a long time ago, the best thing to do is ask your host. This is usually required;
   

   Contact Enhanced, Ajax Contact and Joomla core contact (of course) use Joomla framework and configuration to send emails and some Joomla installs will not work correctly with Sendmail or PHP Mailer because some mail servers require that unauthenticated emails must be sent from or to an email address @your-domain.com, or do not allow unauthenticated emails. It seems to be your case, specially because only the copy message is sent.
   
   I always recommend to set the mailer to SMTP in the Joomla Global Configuration under the Server tab. This will avoid many mail problems, including your contact message be marked as SPAM.
   Go to Global Configuration and set these options below accordingly to your server. If you are unsure how to do it, please contact your web hosting provider and he will be able to give you these informations.

   Mailer: SMTP Server
   SMTP Authentication: 
   SMTP Security: 
   SMTP Port:

Contact Enhanced requires PHP5 in order to work!

Please read the news published on the PHP.net website:

On July 13, 2004, PHP 5 was released, powered by the new Zend Engine II. PHP 5 included new features such as improved support for object-oriented programming, the PHP Data Objects extension (which defines a lightweight and consistent interface for accessing databases), and numerous performance enhancements.The most recent update released by The PHP Group is for the older PHP version 4 code branch. As of August, 2008 this branch is up to version 4.4.9. PHP 4 is no longer under development nor will any security updates be released.

Therefore we advise you to update your php version.

In order to check which version you are using, please select

Help → System Info from the drop-down menu on the Back-end of your Joomla! installation, then you should see the PHP version under the PHP Information tab.

Site → System Information from the drop-down menu on the Back-end of your Joomla! installation, then you should see the PHP version under the PHP Information tab.

Some Ajax/JSON related features also  require PHP 5.2 or newer.

If you have a component (extension) that for some reason does generate Notices, then you can safely turn off this in Joomla Configuration.

Notices are not real errors, they are merley informations for developer in order to help them either improve the performance or to avoid some bugs due to some unitialized variables. If there are notices in our extensions, please let us know. We will work to eliminate them!

There is no real need for a joomla running website to have notices turned on, but some hosings have this as a default.

To turn notices on, follow the following steps...

As a strategy to enhance the User Experience ¹ our Joomla extensions uses Joomla default messaging system. Most comercial and free Joomla templates have this capability. My template's message look like this:

• Thank you for your e-mail.

If your template does not have this option, all you have to do is add a small piece of code to your template and a little css to your main css file (in case it does not have it).

Add the following code to your template where you want all system messages to be displayed, usually inside the same div that displays the content:

Though PHP presents a very versatile and user friendly interface for handling file uploads, the default installation is not geared for working with files in excess of 2 Mega Bytes. This article will help you configure your PHP engine for handling such large file transfers.

The php.ini File

All the configuration settings for your PHP installation are contained in the php.ini file. Sometimes these setting might be overridden by directives in apache .htaccess files or even with in the scripts themselves. However you cannot over ride some of the settings that effect file uploads with .htaccess directives in this way. So let's just concentrate on the ini file. If you do not have access to your PHP configuration file might have to contact your web hoosting service provider.

To find the location of your php.ini file and the current values for the following settings that we need to modify, please go to:

- Select Help → System Info from the drop-down menu on the Back-end of your Joomla! installation, then select the PHP Information tab.

- Select Site → Site information from the drop-down menu on the Back-end of your Joomla! installation, then select the PHP Information tab.

This can be due two main reasons:

1. The [Joomla]/tmp/ folder is unwritable; (most likely)
2. The file size is bigger than your php memory usage limit;

Possible solutions:

Change the permitions of the [Joomla]/tmp/ folder:

1. You can use an FTP client, a web file manager or change it via SSH;

Change the memory_limit:

1. Locate the php.ini file used by your web server. You can use the phpinfo() PHP function to find it. You can find this info at  Help -> System Info from the drop-down menu on the Back-end of your Joomla! installation, under the PHP Innformation tab;
2. Edit the memory_limit parameter in the php.ini file (usually in a section called Resource Limits). Example:
   memory_limit = 32M  ; #Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (32MB)
   If there is no section already for this, place the above line at the end of the file;
3. Restart Apache.

Contact Enhanced tries to inherit most of your template's styling, however some templates have HTML override for Joomla core components and/or style your core components differently. In these cases sometimes your custom field's borders will disappear. When this happens you will have to add the line below to the CE's CSS file:

[Path to Joomla 1.5]/components/com_contact_enhanced/assets/css/validate.css

[Path to Joomla 1.6]/components/com_contactenhanced/assets/css/ce.css

.ce-container .inputbox{border:1px inset !important}

Joomla 1.6+ comes with MooTools 1.3 which has its own validation script, which Contact Enhanced uses. The translation for the error messages (for some languages, see language codes) are in the MooTools javascript files:

[Path to Joomla 1.6+]/media/system/js/mootools-core.js
