Link to contact page with id_contact

[waterp]

Hi, is there anyway to point to a contact page but specifying the id_contact in the form?
Something like mysite/contact-us?id_contact=3

Hello. Please, could you explain more detailed?

[waterp]

Sure.
At the contact page link you'll find a form with some contacts as drop down items, I wonder if using an url variable I can't see at that page webmaster as default for example.

Actually what you can do with message variable url to pass the message text variable in the form.

That's clearer?

Any idea? It isn't possible?

Hello. If i understand right, the contact name must be selected if there is id_contact value added to URL. I have did it. Please, check code below and my steps:

1) File: folder of PS > modules > contactform > contactform.php.  Line: 281 or Function: function renderWiidget()

if (Tools::getValue('id_contact')) {
            $contactVal = Tools::getValue('id_contact');
            $this->smarty->assign('contact_id', $contactVal);
}

Add this code above:

$this->smarty->assign($this->getWidgetVariables($hookName, $configuration));

 

2) File: folder of PS > theme > current_theme_folder > modules > contactform > views > templates > widget > contactform.tpl.  Line: 50 or <select name="id_contact" class="form-control form-control-select">

<option value="{$contact_elt.id_contact}">{$contact_elt.name}</option>

change it to

<option value="{$contact_elt.id_contact}" {if $contact_id eq $contact_elt.id_contact} selected {/if}>{$contact_elt.name}</option>

Save the files and check.

Hi, thanks for your help but it didn't work.

You can check it here

if you change the id in the url it always shows "aggiungi testimonianza", while I'd like to change the subject using url.

Try to add this code 

<option value="{$contact_elt.id_contact}" {if $contact_id eq $contact_elt.id_contact} selected {/if}>{$contact_elt.name}</option>

to this path too: modules/contactform/views/templates/widget/contactform.tpl

[waterp]

Done. It doesn't work.

It is impossible. I did it in 2 different shops and result was same. Do you let me check it in your shop?

[waterp]

Sure. Tell me what you need, I'll write you in pvt.
