* Configurable page header, top text, and bottom text.
* Up to five additional user-defined fields.
* Main message field is re-sizeable.
* All fields can be optional, mandatory, or not shown.
* Optional simple captcha system. We don't want to discourage potential customers, so we use a simple picture based system, "Please click on the cat/dog/etc". You can easily add your own pictures to the image library.
* Optional "magic word" system. The user must find and enter the correct magic word to send a message. You can make the magic word easy to find, or difficult.
* Optional auto-fill of email address and name or username for logged in users.
* Optionally logs all contacts. The log is viewable in the back end and includes the browser type and IP address of the sender.
* Multi-language with many languages. The user guide explains how to add your own language.
Version 5 adds most of the features you have been asking for - but is still just as easy to setup:
* Configurable email templates giving complete control over email content and format.
* Built-in editor to easily edit the front-end CSS styles.
* Option to not show "Email a copy of this message to your own address"
* Option to require agreement of a statement and/or linked article before the send button is enabled.
* Option to send emails as HTML or plain text.
* Option to redirect to a link after sending a message.
In case you need help there is also a full pdf user guide.
Installed with no problems but there was an issue with not showing the captcha images. With help from Chris (he responded late at night within a couple of hours) the problem was shown to be related to the cache settings on my Joomla system. Setting to No Cache and cache handler setting to "cache_lite" and everything works fine. Very useful extension and good support too.
Love it, easy to configures and works great!!
I'm a web developer and frequently need to set up contact forms on websites. Many of my clients detest regular captchas, and against my advice, would ask to "just leave that off" their web forms.
This extension solves that issue. With its 'choose a picture' and/or 'secret word' captcha system, eyeballs can now be saved. And my clients don't have to choose between spam or inflicting pain on customers.
Thanks for this!

Excellent extension, and free too. Was up and running very quickly; easy to customise even in free version. Recommended.
Great Extension, easy to use, easy to implement with no annoying watermarks or author text display. Has many customizable options. Would highly recommend!
I had an issue with the selection of the pictures and asked the support (bought the plus version too, to have the option to download all the nice pictures) and was impressed about the fast response and the clear answers, which solved the problem very fast ...
Many thanks for such a strong helping support

Awesome SIMPLE FREE form functionality. But the 9 euro spend on FlexiContact Plus were the best ever spend :-)
Thx guys!
Thx guys!
Boy, that's easy to make multiple different contact forms! I used something called JForms for Joomla 1.5, but it was a bit of pain to make one (too much reliance on a purdy drag-drop interface) and needed something handy for 2.5.
Glad I stumbled on this one! More than worth the token price asked for.

Thanks for that, although I suspect this review was intended to be for FlexiContact Plus, as the free version does not support multiple different forms (and is totally free).
For me it's the best component about contact system! Install, set quickly and work good! Congratulation to programmers! Ciao!
Simple to install, easy to customize (like the prepped css file), easy fer the user, comes w language, easy on the resources, and most important: saves me the time and trouble o'coding from scratch.
Cheers to the dev. Recommend to any and all.
P.S.
Uh, oh! I almost forgot - it's free, and the user manual is made so kids could make this mod work.

This extension is very simple to use. There is a very useful log for storing the received message. The only restriction is that the form can have up to 5 more additional fields of simple text (no text area, no combobox, ...).

FlexiContactPlus has more fields and field types.
