enquiry

Note

The enquiry app will send emails to the list of users set-up in the notify list in admin.

Install

Add the mail app to your project.

Add the enquiry app to requirements/local.txt:

-e ../../app/enquiry

Add the enquiry app to requirements/production.txt.

Add the enquiry app to settings/base.py:

LOCAL_APPS = (
    'project',
    # ...
    'enquiry',

Add the enquiry app to project/urls.py:

urlpatterns = [
    # ...
    url(regex=r"^enquiry/", view=include("enquiry.urls")),

Usage

Note

The following instructions are for adding an enquiry form to a custom page (using our block app).

Create a custom page for the enquiry form (probably best to do this in the init_project management command for your project): project/management/commands/init_project.py

Note

This example is for use in a management command. (it uses page sections from the compose app)

Create a URL for your custom page:

from web.views import EnquiryCreateView

url(
    regex=r"^contact/$",
    view=EnquiryCreateView.as_view(),
    kwargs=dict(page=Page.CUSTOM, menu="contact"),
    name="web.contact",
),

In your view, inherit from EnquiryCreateMixin e.g: web/views.py

Note

To add a notice to your form (which can include HTML), see GDPR

Add the enquiry form to your template e.g: compose/templates/compose/contact.html

In the base template for your project, add a link to your enquiry view e.g: web/templates/web/base.html

{% block menu_extra %}
  {{ block.super }}
  <li class="pure-menu-item{% if 'contact' in path %} pure-menu-selected{% endif %}">
    <a href="{% url 'web.contact' %}" class="pure-menu-link">
      Contact Us
    </a>
  </li>
  {# use an exact match on the path if you want to add a design menu #}
  {% if path == '/contact/' or path == '/custom/contact/design/' %}
    {% include 'block/_design_menu.html' %}
  {% endif %}
{% endblock menu_extra %}

Tip

If you don’t add the design menu, you can edit the content of the enquiry page, using Settings, Pages, Config…

Note

The enquiry page will not be included in the CMS Pages or the Navigation Menu because it is a custom page.

Set-up

Log into the admin area of the site and set-up notify users.
