Contact Form Submitted Thank You Page

[Ht872]

Is there a way to display a CMS thank you page after the user submits the contact-form?

 

At the moment the user is presented with a fairly basic message that reads "Your message has been successfully sent to our team" in contact-form.tpl in the default-bootstrap theme.  It would be good so that instead of this the user is taken to a separate CMS page that can be used to track properly on Google Analytics.

 

Thanks.

It is in contact-form.tpl in your theme. You can adapt that file.

Thanks.  I have been looking in there but not sure the best way to do this.  Ideally I'd like the contact form to simply forward to a CMS page.  If you'd be able to explain how to do this it would be a huge help as I don't have much experience when it comes to editing .tpl files.

 

Thanks again.

In Contact-form.tpl you will find something like 

{if isset($confirmation)}
	<p class="alert alert-success">{l s='Your message has been successfully sent to our team.'}</p>
	<ul class="footer_links clearfix">
		<li>
			<a class="btn btn-default button button-small" href="{$base_dir}">
				<span>
					<i class="icon-chevron-left"></i>{l s='Home'}
				</span>
			</a>
		</li>
	</ul>
{elseif isset($alreadySent)}

You should replace that with something like

{if isset($confirmation)}
<script>location.href="http://www.myshop.com/mybeautifulcmspage";</script>
{elseif isset($alreadySent)}

It is not really an elegant solution but it should work.

Perfect, thank you very much for the help, that seems to do the job nicely.

Thank you musicmaster for your solution!

On further though it might be better to use the following code:

{if isset($confirmation)}
        <script>location.href="http://www.myshop.com/mybeautifulcmspage";</script>
	<p class="alert alert-success">{l s='Your message has been successfully sent to our team.'}</p>
	<ul class="footer_links clearfix">
		<li>
			<a class="btn btn-default button button-small" href="{$base_dir}">
				<span>
					<i class="icon-chevron-left"></i>{l s='Home'}
				</span>
			</a>
		</li>
	</ul>
{elseif isset($alreadySent)

I will still bring you to the new page. But when for some reason Javascript doesn't work on your page it will display the traditional message.

Great thank you, have updated my code to the new version.  Cheers

Hi,

Does anyone have a solution to 1.7?

I'd like to edit the contact form confirmation message?

Thanks

First search in:

\themes\active_theme\modules\contactform\views\templates\widget\contactform.tpl

If you do not find the file in the theme, directly in the module:

\modules\contactform\views\templates\widget\contactform.tpl
