Hi,

I've just released QContacts 1.0.6 (download here), I've added two new features and corrected a few bugs. I've had no time to update documentation on the site, here are some quick instructions.

"Thank you" page (at last :-))

After form submission it's now possible to direct user to a separate 'thank you' page in place of reloading the form page with a message displayed at the top.

In Global configuration (Button Parameters) and in each contact's parameters under section E-mail parameters: After form submission allows 2 choices

1) Reload form page with message: a message is displayed at the top of the page exactly as it happens now.

2) Confirmation in a separate page: a thank you page is displayed. Title and text used for this page are in language file to allow translations.

[Joomla frontend]/language/en-GB/en-GB.com_qcontacts.ini
Code:
CONFIRMATION_TITLE=Thank you!
CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE=Your message has been sent. Thanks for contacting us.
GO BACK=Go Back

Customize the text to the right of the equal sign as you like. For language files different than English these lines must be added: remember that the key (the part to the left of the equal sign) must be uppercase.

If customizing the text is not enough you can edit the template.

[Joomla frontend]/components/com_qcontacts/views/contact/tmpl/default_confirm.php

Customize it as you like.

Contact section

When you create a QContacts menu item in Menu Manager, you will see that a new menu item type is available: Standard Contact Section Layout. It will link to a page containing a list of links to all QContacts categories similarly to a Section Layout menu item only for contacts categories not content categories. From menu parameters you can hide/show counters and category descriptions and exclude categories by ID.

You can install this version over an old one without uninstalling it, contacts data will be preserved. I've tested these new features as much as I could, report any bug in the forum.
