In opposite to other templates like JATeline IV, after searching for contacts on my site I can only write an e-mail.
There is absolutely no other content – how may I solve it, except changing the template ?

What other elements are usually available to you in other templates?

If you look in components > com_contact > controller.php there is a function called submit( ).

In controller.php you see a function called submit(). In that function, the variables for sending are collected:

$contactId = JRequest::getInt( ‘id’, 0, ‘post’ );
$name = JRequest::getVar( ‘name’, ”, ‘post’ );
$email = JRequest::getVar( ’email’, ”, ‘post’ );
$telephone = JRequest::getVar( ‘telephone’, ”, ‘post’ );

For the example above, I added $telephone (not default).

After that, I scrolled down to the comment // Prepare email body.
Here the collected variables are put together in an email.

I changed . . . .

$body = $prefix.”n”.$name.’ <‘.$email.’> ‘.”rnrn”.stripslashes($body);
to
$body = $prefix.”n”.$name.’ (‘.$email.’, ‘.$telephone.’) ‘.”rnrn”.stripslashes($body);

You see that I added the variable $telephone in that line.
From now on, emails contain the telephone-number from the sender.

Hope that helps.

As an added bit of reference, I found this discussion within the Joomla Community Forum . . . .

How To Change Standard Contact Form

Perhaps this may assist you further.

You misunderstood me, I don’t only want to write an e-mail in contact page. I want to have also detailed informations in contact page like in JA Teline IV in this screenshot.

Well, you can certainly try to transpose (or cut-and-paste) the relevant “contact” files, code and images from Teline IV to your JA Travel based site.
