The Contact Form plugin for Moodle processes information submitted through a custom web form, sending it by email to the site's support email address, if defined, or to the primary system administrator.
Examples uses for this plugin include:
- Contact us form.
- Support request form.
- Request a course form.
- Information request form.
- Lead generation form.
- Membership application form.
Share with us how you use this plugin on your site.
Note: This is not a web form builder but a form processor. You must have some knowledge of how to create HTML forms or at the very least be able to cut and paste the example included in the README file.
Contact Form templates
If you are not familiar with HTML, consider using the following easy to use plain text {form...} tags included with the FilterCodes plugin. These will generate a Contact Form templates and therefore require that you have the FilterCodes plugin installed and activated.
- {formquickquestion} : Adds a "quick question" form to your course. Form includes Subject and Message fields. Note: User must be logged in or the form will not be displayed.
- {formcontactus} : Adds a "Contact Us" form to your site (example: in a page). Form includes Name, Email address, Subject and Message fields.
- {formcourserequest} : Adds a "Course Request" form to your site (example: in a page). Unlike Moodle's request-a-course feature where you can request to create your own course, this tag allows users to request that a course they are interested in be created. Could also be used to request to take a course. Form includes Name, Email address, Course name, Course Description.
- {formsupport} : Adds a "Support Request" form to your site (example: in a page). Form includes Name, Email address, pre-determined Subject, specific Subject, URL and Message fields.
- {formcheckin} : Adds a "I'm here!" button to your to your course. Form does not include any other fields. Note: User must be logged in or the button will not be displayed.
