cmsplugin-contact-plus
cmsplugin-contact-plus lets you build forms for your Django CMS project with exactly the fields you want in the order you want with a minimal effort.
Beside the regular input fields there are "auto" fields, for example to submit the referral page, or additional, hidden values. The form will be submitted to an email address that is defined per form. This allows to cover a lot of use cases with a single and simple plugin.

To set the reply-to header for the email automatically, specify CONTACT_PLUS_REPLY_EMAIL_LABEL
in your project settings. If the label is "your email" for example, then set CONTACT_PLUS_REPLY_EMAIL_LABEL='your-email'
- basically it's the slugified field label that is used to look up the reply-to email address.
CONTACT_PLUS_SEND_COPY_TO_REPLY_EMAIL
To send a carbon copy to the submitter you can set the CONTACT_PLUS_SEND_COPY_TO_REPLY_EMAIL
to True
. If a Field with the label email
exists this email will be used as Cc Header.
CONTACT_PLUS_REQUIRED_CSS_CLASS
Defines the required CSS class, default is required
.
CMSPLUGIN_CONTACT_PLUS_TEMPLATES
To allow users to choose between multiple contact form templates, specify the template choices in your project settings like this:
CMSPLUGIN_CONTACT_PLUS_TEMPLATES = [
('cmsplugin_contact_plus/contact.html', 'Contact Form'),
('cmsplugin_contact_plus/contact_newsletter.html', 'Newsletter Form'),
]
Make sure that the templates can be loaded by Django.
CMSPLUGIN_CONTACT_FORM_VALIDATORS
Specify CMSPLUGIN_CONTACT_FORM_VALIDATORS
in your projects settings to one or more validator functions that are used with the CharFieldWithValidator field. Expected is a list of strings, each string should point a validator function by its full path. For example:
CMSPLUGIN_CONTACT_FORM_VALIDATORS = [
'myproject.utils.validators.phone_number_validator',
]
CONTACT_PLUS_SEND_HTML_EMAIL
Default is False
. If activated, the notification email is sent as multipart/alternative.
CONTACT_PLUS_FAIL_SILENTLY
Default is True
. If deactivated, email failure is not silent anymore.
reCAPTCHA
To make the reCAPTCHA field type available to your users, add 'captcha'
to your INSTALLED_APPS
and define your RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY
and RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY
as described in django-recaptcha's README. A single reCAPTCHA instance per page is supported.
Templates
If you are not using the default template settings of Django, make sure that 'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader'
is added to the TEMPLATES.OPTIONS.loaders
list in your settings.py
file. Likewise, if your Django version is < 1.8, make sure that the above-mentioned loader is in your list of TEMPLATE_LOADERS
.

Notes

name="{{ field.label|slugify }}"
. This is necessary for the proper validation of the form.

- Generic Query parameter (GET key) to hidden field. Use this in attach additional hidden data to the form. The slugified label is used for key lookup in the GET parameters. Eg.: label is 'Favorite Color', than the lookup in the URL is done based on 'favorite-color', in www.example.com?favorite-color=blue will pass {..., u'favorite-color':'blue', ...} to the email.
1.0.4
- Fixed default "from email address" in case
ADMINS

1.0.3
- Improved Documentation
- Added
auto_TextArea
shortcut to create a TextArea. Note: Currently the widget defined in the plugins are ignored. - Hidden "referral page" field. Reads referral from request.
- Generic Hidden fields. Use this in combination with JavaScript/jQuery to attach additional data to the form sent by email.
For example, the field lable for the 'CharField as HiddenInput' is named to "Object description". Using the lable name, the ID for the input field will be 'id_object-description', the name 'object-description'.
Store data is dead easy using jQuery.
$('#id_object-description').val('Hello Hidden World'); // The string 'Hello Hidden World' will be send by email as well.
1.0.2
Fixed indentation /EOF in setup.py
1.0.1
Fixed IndentationError in setup.py
