add a step to contact form? ctop spammers and easy to answer questions from noobs
I get a TON of emails every day from people who simply need to fill out a password request form...
And I also get a ton of spam via my contact form. Is there any way to use captcha or another form of spam repellent before a contact message is sent? And in the same motion, tell people to click the lost password link before harrassing the admin? Thanks! |

I added text above my contactus template informing users that if they email a question ti maybe up to 96 hours for a response.
Then i have them a few useful links, and a link to the problem forum where guests are allowed to post. See the screen shot. If you want this let me know, and i'll throw together a quick how to of hwo i did it |

Add this to your Additional CSS area for your skins. (admincP -> Style Manager -> Main CSS -> All the way at the bottom)
Code:
.contact2 { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bolder; font-variant: small-caps; background-color: #FFFFCC; margin: 8px; border: thin dashed #FF0000; padding: 5px; } Next Contact Us Template ( AdminCP -> Style manager -> contactus template) find Code:
<if condition="$navbar">$navbar<else /><br /><br /></if> Code:
<div class="contact2">Your text to appear here </div> |

Thanks for that.
I'd still like to see some sort of captcha before the user is allowed to send an email, because I have already gotten 4 of these today: Quote:

image verification for registration is either on or off, there is no in between.
