Modified version of the contact_us gem to work with Spree.

REQUIREMENTS

SpreeContactUs requires:

  • Spree Core 1.0.0 or greater
  • Ruby 1.9.2 or greater.

CAUTION

THIS IS THE MASTER BRANCH IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF SPREE CONTACT US, IT REFLECTS THE WORK THAT IS CURRENTLY DONE AND CAN THEREFORE CONTAIN BUGS. FOR PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT YOU SHOULD USE THE LATEST STABLE VERSION.

INSTALLATION

In your Gemfile, add the following dependencies:

To install from edge:

gem 'spree_contact_us', :git => 'https://github.com/spree-contrib/spree_contact_us'

Or install from latest stable version:

gem 'spree_contact_us', github: 'spree-contrib/spree_contact_us', branch: '3-0-stable'

From Rails.root run:

$ bundle
$ bundle exec rails g spree_contact_us:install

In config/initializers/spree_contact_us.rb modify:

config.mailer_to = "contact@please-change-me.com"

Change to the email address you would like to receive the form submissions at for example:

config.mailer_to = "contact@yourdomain.com"

By default the emails from field will be the email entered by the user to easily reply, but this may not be allowed if your required to verify your sending email addresses. You may also specify an email address for the notification emails from field:

config.mailer_from = "dontreply@yourdomain.com"

CONFIGURATION

If you would like to add a name or subject field to the form you may simply set the options to true within the spree_contact_us initializer located at config/initializers/spree_contact_us.rb:

config.require_name = true
config.require_subject = true

You may also update your locales under config/locales/spree_contact_us.en.yml or create your own. Please feel free to submit your own locales so that other users will hopefully find this gem more useful.

ADD A CONVERISION TRACKING CODE

If you need to print a conversion tracking code on contact sent, you can setup a spree preference for this. Just open a Rails console in your application and launch:

Spree::ContactUs::Config[:contact_tracking_message] = 'nothing special'

Everything that is not an empty string will cause a flash ("contact_tracking") message to be created. You can use it somewhere in your layout like this:

<% if flash[:contact_tracking] %>
    put your conversion tracking code here
<% end %>

By default the preference has an empty string value so no flash messages will be created until you don't need it.

USAGE

Visit your website and navigate to /contact-us to see the form in action.

Be aware that stylesheet customization would be required as the contact-us class does not automatically inherit all the necessary styles.

Refer to Spree Guide on how to go about it.
