I am using Joomla Version: Joomla! 3.1.1 Stable and have an issue with trying to update the JA Quick Contact form to have additional elements for the user to fill out. I tried editing /tmpl/default.php but it doesn’t seem to change the site. Any ideas why?

Things I have tried:
1) Control Panel
Extensions > Module Manager
Filter: Select Type: JA Quick Contact
On ‘Request Catalog’ I click ‘Edit’ and then go to the ‘Options’ tab
-Basic Options: Use ajax sending is No
-Advanced Options: Changed ‘Caching’ to ‘No caching’ and clicked the ‘Save’ button.

2) Opened /modules/mod_jaquickcontact/mod_jaquickcontact.php and if the line below is commented out the form no longer displays on my page:
[PHP]require (JModuleHelper::getLayoutPath(‘mod_jaquickcontact’)); [/PHP]

I did this just to test if a change to /modules/mod_jaquickcontact is the right place.

3) Modified /modules/mod_jaquickcontact/tmpl/default.php by adding a new textbox, save and upload and the form still doesn’t show the new textbox.
<li class=”<?php echo $params->get(‘moduleclass_sfx’,”)?>wide clearfix” id=”row_phone”>
<label id=”contact_phonemsg” class=”required” for=”contact_phone”>
 <?php echo $phone_label?>:
</label>
<div class=”<?php echo $params->get(‘moduleclass_sfx’,”)?>input-box”>
<div id=”error_phone” class=”<?php echo $params->get(‘moduleclass_sfx’,”)?>jl_error”><?php if(isset($error[‘error_phone’]))echo $error[‘error_phone’] ?></div>
<input class=”input-text” id=”contact_phone” name=”subject” value=”<?php echo @$phone?>” size=”40″/>
</div>
</li>

4) I disabled javascript in my Firefox browser and refreshed page and I can’t see the new input box. I did this to see if jquery/javascript needed to have a flag set to display form elements.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

In this JA Onepage template, we override this JA Quickcontact module in template folder so you should also make your own customization on this file: /templates/ja_onepage(your_default_template)/html/mod_jaquickcontact/default.php

You can give it a try 🙂
