Re: adding a contact page (resolved)
hmm that is odd, now if it were php I could easily help you define the variables,
Is this a Microsoft or linux based server the site is on?

because the <code><txp:zem_contact to=“admin@endcruelty.ca” /></code> Is just the invisible field that sends the form to your address
I don’t think so WhiteDog, this tag should create a basic but complete email form (see Stuart’s article).
@blazin6543:
Just to make sure: you did activate the plugin didn’t you?
Edit: Oh and you need both zem_contact_reborn and zem_contact_lang.

Re: adding a contact page (resolved)
ok you wanna know how stupid i am at textpattern??? i put my “contact” page to the same as default and tried to see if adding a damn article with “<txp:zem_contact to=“admin@endcruelty.ca” />” instead would make it work….. lo’ and behold it works now……. i officially i have no brain when it comes to textpattern…. why didnt anyone tell me to start a sticky article??? thats the only thing i didnt do ;)
but……… the form seems to be sticking out really far and i cant seem to find where to edit the width :(

Re: adding a contact page (resolved)
edit the following in css
<code>
input{
width:120px;
}
textarea{
width:150px;
}
</code>
set your width accordingly

Re: adding a contact page (resolved)
A sticky article? I have no article content on my contact page and it works fine. I’m using the old zem_contact with a minor hack to let me dynamically add the email subject.
I still haven’t figured out how to do zem_contact_secret :/

Re: adding a contact page (resolved)

Re: adding a contact page (resolved)
i just hard coded the form in a new section with a new page specified as contact. Rather than doing the form as a sticky article…? It actually seems more complex to have it that way. Or did I misunderstand.
