A basic contact form is a great way to request feedback or simply provide your visitors with an easy way of getting in touch with you.  The contact form you will be creating with this tutorial will generate an email that will be delivered to your Joomla user account email. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"#create-contact-form\">How to Create a Contact Form in Joomla 4<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#make-page-public\">Make Your Contact Page Public<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#creating-different-contact-pages\">Creating Different Contact Pages For Different Users<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<!-- Shortcode [joomla-vps-1] does not exist -->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alert alert-info\">This article uses the default Joomla contact form, which can effectively receive input and send email, but it does not save input in the Joomla database.  This means you will be able to receive email messages from visitors, but the content they sent to you will not be saved anywhere on your site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alert alert-info\">Likewise, remember that your user will be submitting their email along with the message they send.  If your website has a privacy policy and\/or terms of service then you may want to mention that the email they provide will only be used for contact and not for marking purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> By the end of this tutorial, you will have a link to a \u201cContact Us\u201d page accessible from your main menu in the sidebar of your Joomla site.  (In the default Joomla template, this menu will be located at the top of the right-hand sidebar.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"421\" height=\"248\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_010.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_010.png 421w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_010-300x177.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"create-contact-form\">How to Create a Contact Form in Joomla 4<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\nIn order to complete these steps you must first be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/joomla\/how-to-log-in-to-administrative-dashboard\/\">logged into your Joomla admin area<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"article_list wp-block-list\"><li>Under <i>Components<\/i> &gt; <i>Contacts<\/i>, click <b>Contacts<\/b>.<br> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"389\" class=\"wp-image-87486\" style=\"width: 500px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_011.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_011.png 492w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_011-300x234.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/li><li> Click the <b>New<\/b> button to create a new contact form: <br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"349\" class=\"wp-image-87487\" style=\"width: 500px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_012.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_012.png 482w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_012-300x209.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/li><li> Give your contact form a name using the \u201cName\u201d field: <br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"346\" class=\"wp-image-87488\" style=\"width: 500px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_013.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_013.png 496w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_013-300x207.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/li><li> <b>Most importantly<\/b>, be sure to link a Joomla user with the contact form.

This is sometimes known as \u201csender filtering.\u201d  For example, you might have a contact page for personal inquiries and one for general or specific inquiries.  An easy to way to make sure that the right message gets to the right place is to simply create a new contact form and link a different user.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Remember, every Joomla account is associated with a certain email address, and you can always create new Joomla users to associate them with a different email account: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"354\" height=\"325\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_021.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87494\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_021.png 354w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/joomla4_Selection_021-300x275.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\nIf you already have a user account set up for this email address, you can proceed with creating a specific contact form for that user.  In order to accomplish setting up a contact form for a specific email address, go back to the initial <a href=\"#create-contact-form\">contact form creation process<\/a> and link the new form to a different user account.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nThe linked user account you select in the contact form creation process will receive any emails that result from the usage of the contact form itself.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alert alert-warning\">Please note, you will want to create a different name for the new contact form in order to distinguish it from the other contact forms.  Pay close attention to the \u201cName\u201d field and use it to provide a name that is different enough to make it stand out.  You will want to avoid confusing contact forms in order to make sure the proper communication gets to the right place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Well done!
