QContacts is a contact manager component derived from com_contact, the standard component distributed with Joomla!, and offering several additional features. 1) More contact fields: Yahoo Messenger Id and Skype Id to provide your visitors with an alternate way to send a message to the contact. 2) Up to 6 custom fields can be added to the contact form. You can choose each field's type (text, textarea, radio buttons, checkbox, drop down list) and whether the field is optional or required. 3) An anti-spam verification image (captcha) can be added to the form.
Contacts data and categories inserted in com_contact can be imported into QContacts. Online documentation is available at the website.
Plugins
Search plugin to make QContacts managed contacts searchable with the standard Joomla search box.
Sh404SEF plugin for users who want to use Sh404SEF to generate sef urls for QContacts.
Version 1.0.4
- Contact form standard fields (name, e-mail, message) can be made optional or hidden exactly as custom fields.
- A custom path for the folder containing contacts images can be set.
- E-mail containing form submission results can be sent from admin e-mail (set in Joomla configuration) in place of e-mail submitted with the form. This may solve issues of undeliverable e-mails on some servers.
- Submitter IP address can be included in e-mail with form submission results.
- Contacts lists are now sortable by a default field.
Version 1.0.3
- captcha appearance can now be fully controlled from component configuration: captcha width/height, code length, font/font size, text and background color, vertical and arc lines on/off, lines color.
- More types for custom fields: text, textarea, radio buttons, checkbox, drop down list.
-Custom *and* standard fields width and order on the form can be set from component configuration: custom fields are no longer mandatorily positioned after standard fields.
- All contact fields can be displayed in list of contacts viewable from Contact Category Layout links. Each column width and order can be set.
See Changelog on the website for other minor changes.

The custom form fields and the possibility to sort and define fields optional are great addition to the features!
I can basically use QContacts now as a simple generic form to email handler. |
| The best contact extension to date! by reuelc, October 23, 2008 |

Great program with a superb support!
Features are a great not found with the other contact extension. I has a problem though with combining this with Bigshotgoogleanalytics the capcha is not working when I enable googleanalytics. The problem was immediately attended and solved by Qcontacts. Check support for details if you have similar problem.
Keep up the good work! |

This is a great tool and should be to the default joomla core!!
Works the same way like joomla contacts so the user dont need any special knowledge!
Also the integrated captcha works out of the box! no hacks and additional plugins!!
The possibility to add custom fields is perfect BUT!
It would be even better to be able to make a contact for the registered users.
No need to typing email and name.
Their email and username (instead of name) to be added automatically (from their registered information)
Both email and usename to be locked so they cant change it.
Dont know if this is possible to happen but if yes,
then it will take it to an other lavel!!
Thanks very much for that!
Sending love |

I don't write reviews very often, but felt compelled to write one for this extension. Finally, an easy way to efficiently customize your contact form. |
| Fed-Up with "Contact Us" Spam - get this.. by EvilEd, September 22, 2008 |
|
Terrific - I installed this and once tested - had it up and running with a CAPTCHA very quickly on the Contact US form - buh-bye spam!
I am running SH404SEF - so had to install the plugin for QContacts before the CAPTCHA image would show up - but after that it's a breeze.
Also make sure that the global CAPTCHA setting is turned on - to do that in J1.5 - select the QContacts component then hit the Parameters icon (top right of screen) |

I love how I can modify the Captcha field. I often find those Captcha letters ugly with other extensions. This one is actually great. If someone could explain me how to modify the Captcha letters with other extensions (which don't have the Captcha parameters build in) I'd really appreciate that.
I like to modify the qcontacts.css file too.
A thank-you-page or message would certainly be userfriendly. Otherwise people send emails a thousand times because they think the contact form doesn't work. |

| Great component by tgelvin, September 14, 2008 |

just works right out of the box... I love the captcha feature, but I feel this should be a default option. |
| Super Must Have by ssalman, September 14, 2008 |

Million thanks latenight, its fabulous can't describe in words. Installation great, captcha lovely - worked straight from the box.
I would recommend Joomla team to make this as their default, due to the built-in CAPTCHA.
Thanks, |

Brilliant. Performs as advertised. Configurable, easily installed. An example for all in terms of documentation and user friendliness. |

First I must say, that installation and parameter setting were easy to do and worked after the first try. The new search integration works fine as well.
Although the functionality is appreciated very much, I still miss very important features, i.e.
**Sorting of contact list (currently it is not sorted)
**multiple assignment of categories to contacts (currently you need to multiply contacts to show them in different categories)
**Front End adding of contacts |

Alright, I just have to say this is a great component, I am getting to use this regularly on my joomla sites. Excellent captcha, a potential spam stopper! Just want to give a heads up on a great component! |
