I'm using this Joomla template with Joomla 2.5.x and i want to add a Contact Us form in to a RIGHT module in this template.
How can i add a Contact Us form to a module ?
Download a contact form extension that includes a module from the Joomla Extensions Directory, install, configure, then assign the module to the right position.

I have created new Login module and linked to the login menu in Joomla 3.4.1. Also created registration menu as described in docs and tutorials. The login form is showing - I have assigned the position to show in the template from module manager but I cannot view registration form - since there is no registration module. The registration page is showing empty with header and footer but with no body. Is there any way to solve this?
Is the module position valid for your template?
You van check this by enabling the "preview Module Position" under the template options. To view the module position go to your home page e.g. hhtp://www.myhomepage.com/index.php?tp=1. Please note the tp=1 ..
Now you can check if the module positions exists on your site.
Just let me know.
kind regards.
I am trying to add a country selector to the front page of my site for the users to be able to select a country and land on a specific page. I have not been able to find a Joomla extension for this, but I found a jquery plugin that does this, but I am not sure how to or is there a way to add this to my Joomla site.
The jquery plugin
There are multiple ways to do that:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extension/jquery-easy
Install a plugin to include jQuery in
b. http://dabrook.org/blog/two-ways-to-include-jquery-in-your-document
Do that for joomla template file (don't forget jQuery.NoConflict())
And at the and modify article with that country picker (put JS code in).
OR
Develop a plugin to do all that. (for more experienced user)
Im completely new to Joomla development. I need to develop Joomla plugin that adds static javascript to the footer of all the pages of a Joomla site. Also, the plugin would need to save 2 fields in database, and access these fields on per page basis. Also, Admin panel is needed.
Now, my questoion is, where do i start? Joomla plugin development is a big task, so if I can get some pointers as to where to start, it would be very supporting.
Im not asking for direct code, but just the right direction to start.
Thanx in advance....
Joomla has three types of extensions (what you refered to as plugin): components, modules and plugins, where each has a different purpose.
If you need to add javascript to all pages, the best place is your template. If you don't have access to template, just building an extension, then you have to create a content plugin.
If you need to create extension with admin panel which also works with database, you need to create a component. The best place to get started is tutorial Developing a MVC component for Joomla 2.5
I want to build my first module for Joomla 2.5 but I have a problem. I want to have multiple templates for my module, and the admin of the site can choose the templates from the config of the module. How can I do this ?
You are planning to create a joomla 2.5 front end module.then you can achieve your requirement as follows
You can use the joomla module override concept.
For each template you are using you can write module inside template folder for overrides.
like as follows
TEMPLATE_NAME/html/mod_login/default.php
for more details take a look at this.
I hope this will solve your issues..
How do I display the form in the frontend in Joomla 2.5, just like the Create Article form shown in the frontend?
You can obviously create an form in an article but it will be pointless as the form will require PHP functions which cannot be written in an article.
Your best bet would be to develop a simple module which you can embed in an article or download a free form extension from the Joomla Extensions Directory.
