I want to implement this Contact form from kontaktformular.com inside a separate folder (named "custom-contact-form") on my Magento root directory.
Eg: mywebsite.com/custom-contact-form
Now, kontaktformular.com gives you whole package with html, php and css files to make and run your custom contact form. Here is the package.
One of the files that they give out is test.php to send a test mail to a given email address to see if everything works all right or not. This file is has a pretty simple php script to send an email to a secific email address. Now, it doesn't work! And I can't figure out why? Is it because of some kind of PHP conflict with magento installation?
Infact, I have tried many other simple contact form scripts and none of them seem to work.
I want to know the reason causing it not to work. Also, is there a way to add a custom contact form in magento WITHOUT creating a new extenshion?
oh, why do you want use that contact form?
the magento connect has this very nice webforms extension.

I have modified the users component of Joomla, specifically the file components/com_users/controllers/profile.php and included some custom templates in components/com_users/views/profile/tmpl
It is mostly some forms which I am submitting and then redirecting to specific pages for further actions.
Example scenario :
Above option is accessible to user right after login. I have put it on the profile page by modifying default profile template.
So when someone enters a name, and presses search, then this form is submitted through form
action="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_users&task=profile.selectSendMessage'); ?>"
This in turn calls the function named selectSendMessage which is placed in profile.php file. The function looks like :
As you can see the function redirects to
index.php?option=com_users&view=profile&layout=sendMessage
I have placed sendMessage.php template in com_users/views/profile/tmpl
Everything works fine on localhost which I have set up on MAMP in MacOS
I moved the website to a live server a few days ago. I have followed all proper steps to migrate website and database from localhost to live server. Still any of the custom templates I have put in are never reached.
The strange thin is that Edit User Profile which is redirected to from the same profile.php file from a function edit(), with template in the same location as I have put in edit.php in views/profile/tmpl works as expected.
I am using 1and1 shared hosting plan 1&1 Unlimited for hosting the website.
I have been trying to fix this for quite some time now, but cannot understand the problem. I have tried reinstalling the website several times, tried installing from web apps from 1&1 control panel and modifying it, but no success.
Any tips and insights are welcome. Thank you.
It turns out that 1and1.com hosting somehow doesn't support layout names with a capital letter in it. I changed all layout names to lower case alphabets and everything worked fine like it should.
If someone faces the same issue, this is worth a try. It was particularly hard to debug since you will never suspect that could be a problem. I accidentally stumbled on the solution while playing around.
Thanks.
I have tirelessly tried to create and save an email template to no avail. I have tried different locales and all the templates load fine. But whenever I try to save the template I get this error message - "The template Name must not be empty." although the template name field is filled. What could be the problem?
I strongly recommend the Yireo Email Override extenson (see https://www.yireo.com/software/magento-extensions/email-override). One advantage is templates are stored as files and so can be managed through source control (such as git).
Your problem is mod_security. A fast way to see if that is the problem disable mod_security and try again (http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/modsecurity/disable-mod-security-via-modsec-manager).
Remember to enable again mod_security then find which rule make you problems
http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/modsecurity/find-and-disable-specific-modsecurity-rules
and then make changes to your files (file permission etc.) or you can disable that rules (not recommended).
I had the same issue and addressed it as follows. I deleted most of the content I wanted to have in the email leaving behind just our logo (I suspected the system was rejecting something in the content). I saved the template without most of the content. It saved properly. I then opened up the template and pasted in the rest of my html and saved it.
On a Magento 1.11.1 site (Pro).
When I go to the URL [site]/customer/account/create I should get the form for creating a customer from the file /frontend/base/default/template/persistent/customer/form/register.phtml in block Mage_Customer_Block_Form_Register. Instead there is no such block included (show hints and show blocks enabled).
The customer login form works [site]/customer/account/login by displaying the form from file /frontend/base/default/template/persistent/customer/form/login.phtml in block Mage_Customer_Block_Form_Login. This works fine.
I'm using basically the modern theme with modifications (in a separate directory).
Also, customers are still able to create an account via the checkout process.
Is there an configuration parameter that might be set that could disable the standalone 'create customer account' functionality?
Could I have some issue with the templating that is getting in the way of displaying this register block?
So far I have not found the program logic that controls whether the register block is included or removed or anything? I've checked on file permissions and everything else I could think of, but there is obviously something I am overlooking or not aware of.
Any pointers on discovering the source of the problem would be appreciated.
I have a joomla website.here is the link
link for siteI want to integrate a external php signup and login form.I create a php signup form.It works perfecly.
signup linkBut the problem is i dont know how to integrate that form to my joomla web pages...I want to secure my web pages..Only registered users can view my page....please help me..
Why have you create your own register form? Joomla already has the one. To see it follow the link index.php?option=com_user&task=register, Login for there index.php?option=com_user&task=login. If you need more fields to be filled out during registation you may you Community Builder. This extention allows to add to user profie as many fields as you want
It is also possible to use Chronoforms to allow for registration that brings in multiple fields as well without having to bring in an external file for registration/login.
Using the tools Joomla has to stay within Joomla is really the best way to go about it. It will allow you to keep your sanity and keep things as uniformed as possible.
this is probably really easy, but here goes:
My changes to the magento email templates don't show in the emails.
What am I doing wrong? Do I need to reinstall magento to get the updates? Am I simply editing the wrong files?
Thanks...
UPDATE: So now:
I have a fresh magento install
I haven't touched the Transactional Emails admin
I don't have locale set to 'en_US' (but since 1.4 that shouldn't be a problem right? Anyway, I tried setting the locale but it didn't help)
I ERASED the entire app/locale/en_US/template/email/ catalog
With this setup I completed an order and I still get the default email.
The only thing I can think of is I'm coming at this from the wrong direction, but I can't for the life of me figure it out.
Is it possible that your email templates are already saved into the database, and that your changes of the files are therefore not editing the correct version of the templates? Take a look at System -> Transactional Emails to see any templates that have been "promoted" to the database.
Hope that helps!
Thanks,
Joe
Make sure you have the proper locale selected within the admin if you are using the Transactional Emails to create new templates. Also you can also edit the files directly via
/app/locale/[language]-[country]/template/email/
