We have several email forms on our ja_portfolio site and want to know if there is a way to implement them through the template – or do we use our own scripts outside of the template admin?

Thank you!

I don’t understand what you mean clearly. Could you explain more? A snapshot with your annotation is very helpful to help me understand your idea.

The form action here. Does the template have a form module or anything that I should use to make the eform work? Or do I just do that outside of the template (probably so). I am just checking before I start to do them.

Thank you!

I think you do outside. But you should use ChronoForm component to create new form (http://www.chronoengine.com/downloads.html)

Yes you can try to use Joomla form and contact form extensions, it will be easier than your own scripts that work outside of the Joomla installation.

You can check all Contact Forms and Forms extensions on Joomla Extensions Directory.

Thank you so much! I will keep this thread open until I am sure I understand how to use the Forms extensions tomorrow.

Thanks again!
