The ContactPage extension implements a contact form for visitors. It
|
|
creates a special page Special:Contact, which is similar to
|
|
Special:Emailuser, but it has a fixed recipient, and can be used
|
|
anonymously.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The ContactPage extension was originally written by Daniel Kinzler in 2007
|
|
and is released under the GNU General Public Licence (GPL). It is based on
|
|
the code in SpecialEmailuser.php in the MediaWiki core.
|
|
The internationalization files contain contributions by several people;
|
|
they are mentioned in each file individually.
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Installing ==
|
|
|
|
Copy the ContactPage directory into the extensions folder of your
|
|
MediaWiki installation. Then add the following lines to your
|
|
LocalSettings.php file (near the end):
|
|
|
|
require_once( "$IP/extensions/ContactPage/ContactPage.php" );
|
|
|
|
$wgContactUser = 'WikiAdmin';
|
|
$wgContactSender = 'apache@' . $wgServerName;
|
|
$wgContactSenderName = 'Contact Form on ' . $wgSitename;
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Configuration ==
|
|
|
|
$wgContactUser must be the name of a registered wiki user, who has
|
|
supplied an email address, has user-to-user email enabled, and has
|
|
confirmed his/her email address if that is required on this wiki
|
|
(see $wgEmailAuthentication).
|
|
|
|
$wgContactSender must be the email address used as the sender of the
|
|
contact email. Depending on the setup of your web host, this may have to
|
|
be an existing mail account.
|
|
|
|
$wgContactSenderName is the name associated with the contact sender.
|
|
This will be shown in the recipient's email program.
|
|
|
|
If you are using the ConfirmEdit extension (captchas), you can require
|
|
a captcha test for sending contact messages by using the following:
|
|
|
|
$wgCaptchaTriggers['contactpage'] = true;
|
|
