Description: bitmazk-contact-form
====================

A reusable contact form app for Django. Can be used with a modern user-friendly
spam protection or Google's reCAPTCHA. Ready for multilingual sites.

At the moment this contact form does not redirect to a success page. Instead
it adds a variable ``contact_form_success`` to the template context. The
developer can then just output some success message next to the form.

The project can be used in conjunction with `django-cms
<https://github.com/divio/django-cms>`_. Therefore the package comes with a
``cms_app.py`` file and can be integrated into your CMS pages via an AppHook.

Prerequisites
=============

- see requirements.txt

Installation
============

If you want to install the latest stable release from PyPi:

$ pip install bitmazk-contact-form

If you feel adventurous and want to install the latest commit from GitHub:

$ pip install -e git://github.com/bitmazk/bitmazk-contact-form#egg=contact_form

Add ``contact_form`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS``::

INSTALLED_APPS = (
[...]
'contact_form',
}

Add ``CONTACT_FORM_RECIPIENTS`` to your ``settings.py``::

CONTACT_FORM_RECIPIENTS = (
('Foo Bar', 'foobar@example.com'),
)

Make sure to have a block called ``contact_form`` in your template::

{% block contact_form %}

If the output does not fit your needs, just override the templates provided by
this package.

With Django-CMS
---------------

Create a CMS page, assign it to the template that has the ``contact_form``
block and add the ``Contact Form AppHook`` to the page.

Simple spam protection
----------------------

Make sure you got a content block named ``extracss`` or add the relevant css sheet::

{{ form.media.css }}

reCAPTCHA
---------

First register at https://www.google.com/recaptcha/ and make sure you added all
the relevant URLs to your captcha.

Install ``django-recaptcha``:

pip install django-recaptcha

Add it to your installed apps.

Now add the following settings::

CONTACT_FORM_RECAPTCHA = True
RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY = 'YOUR_GOOGLE_RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY'
RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY = 'YOUR_GOOGLE_RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY'
NOCAPTCHA = True
RECAPTCHA_USE_SSL = True # We assume you are using https://

Configuration
=============

Set ``CONTACT_FORM_DISPLAY_CATEGORIES=True`` if you want the form to include a
list of categories the users request is about.

The categories are stored as master data and you can add them via the Django
admin under ``contact_form > ContactFormCategory``.
