About

The Contact module allows visitors to contact site administrators and other users. Users specify a subject, write their message, and can have a copy of their message sent to their own e-mail address. For more information, see the online handbook entry for Contact module.

Uses

User contact forms

Site users can be contacted with a user contact form that keeps their e-mail address private. Users may enable or disable their personal contact forms by editing their My account page. If enabled, a Contact tab leads to a personal contact form displayed on their user profile. Site administrators are still able to use the contact form, even if has been disabled. The Contact tab is not shown when you view your own profile.

Site-wide contact forms

The Contact page provides a simple form for users with the Use the site-wide contact form permission to send comments, feedback, or other requests. You can create categories for directing the contact form messages to a set of defined recipients. Common categories for a business site, for example, might include "Website feedback" (messages are forwarded to website administrators) and "Product information" (messages are forwarded to members of the sales department). E-mail addresses defined within a category are not displayed publicly.

Navigation

When the site-wide contact form is enabled, a link in the main Navigation menu is created, but the link is disabled by default. This menu link can be enabled on the Menus administration page.

Customization

If you would like additional text to appear on the site-wide or personal contact page, use a block. You can create and edit blocks on the Blocks administration page.
