Embed the contact form in TYPO3

Step by step

1. Open the “Page” module in the backend and select the page for the contact form in the page tree.
2. Create a new content element at the desired place.
3. Choose the “Plain HTML” element on the “Special elements” tab.
4. Paste the two lines of your code into the field for the HTML code and save.

The names of the menus may differ slightly depending on the version of your system.

What to watch out for

• The “Plain HTML” element outputs the code unchanged. It is often locked for editors: in that case an administrator enables it or creates the element for you.
• If the form does not appear after saving, clear the cache of the page.

How to see that it works

1. Open the published page, not the preview in the editor. Some systems only run custom code on the published page.
2. The contact form appears with your fields and colours. If the place stays empty, the system has changed or filtered the code: check whether both lines arrived completely.
3. Send a test enquiry. It comes from noreply@ssl-contact.de. Check your spam folder as well and add the address to your safe senders.
