Regards,

There is no option to add custom field in rapid contact module

Hello again, sorry if I'm very insistent. But my boss ask it to me.

So I modified the php code as following:

?php
// no direct access
defined( '_JEXEC' ) or die( 'Restricted access' );

//Email Parameters
$recipient = $params->get('email_recipient', '');
$fromName = @$params->get('from_name', 'Rapid Contact');
$fromEmail = @$params->get('from_email', 'rapid_contact@yoursite.com');

// Text Parameters
$myNameLabel = $params->get('name_label', 'Nombre:');
$myEmailLabel = $params->get('email_label', 'Email:');
$mySubjectLabel = $params->get('subject_label', 'Subject:');
$myMessageLabel = $params->get('message_label', 'Message:');
$buttonText = $params->get('button_text', 'Send Message');
$pageText = $params->get('page_text', 'Thank you for your contact.');
$errorText = $params->get('error_text', 'Your message could not be sent. Please try again.');
$noEmail = $params->get('no_email', 'Please write your email');
$invalidEmail = $params->get('invalid_email', 'Please write a valid email');
$wrongantispamanswer = $params->get('wrong_antispam', 'Wrong anti-spam answer');
$pre_text = $params->get('pre_text', '');

// Size and Color Parameters
$thanksTextColor = $params->get('thank_text_color', '#FF0000');
$error_text_color = $params->get('error_text_color', '#FF0000');
$nameWidth = $params->get('name_width', '20');
$emailWidth = $params->get('email_width', '15');
$subjectWidth = $params->get('subject_width', '15');
$messageWidth = $params->get('message_width', '13');
$buttonWidth = $params->get('button_width', '100');
$label_pos = $params->get('label_pos', '0');
$addcss = $params->get('addcss', 'div.rapid_contact tr, div.rapid_contact td { border: none; padding: 3px; }');

// URL Parameters
$exact_url = $params->get('exact_url', true);
$disable_https = $params->get('disable_https', true);
$fixed_url = $params->get('fixed_url', true);
$myFixedURL = $params->get('fixed_url_address', '');

// Anti-spam Parameters
$enable_anti_spam = $params->get('enable_anti_spam', true);
$myAntiSpamQuestion = $params->get('anti_spam_q', 'How many eyes has a typical person?');
$myAntiSpamAnswer = $params->get('anti_spam_a', '2');
$anti_spam_position = $params->get('anti_spam_position', 0);

// Module Class Suffix Parameter
$mod_class_suffix = $params->get('moduleclass_sfx', '');


if ($fixed_url) {
$url = $myFixedURL;
}
else {
if (!$exact_url) {
$url = JURI::current();

}
else {

}
}
}

$url = htmlentities($url, ENT_COMPAT, "UTF-8");

$myError = '';

// check anti-spam
if ($enable_anti_spam) {

$mailSender = &JFactory::getMailer();

$mailSender->setSender(array($fromEmail,$fromName));
$mailSender->addReplyTo(array( $_POST["rp_email"], '' ));

$mailSender->setSubject($mySubject);
$mailSender->setBody($myMessage);

if ($mailSender->Send() !== true) {
$myReplacement = '<span style="color: ' . $error_text_color . ';">' . $errorText . '</span>';
print $myReplacement;
return true;
}
else {

print $myReplacement;
return true;

}
} // end if posted

// check recipient
if ($recipient === "") {

print $myReplacement;
return true;
}

print '';
print '<div class="rapid_contact ' . $mod_class_suffix . '"><form action="' . $url . '" method="post">' . "\n" .
'<div class="rapid_contact intro_text ' . $mod_class_suffix . '">'.$pre_text.'</div>' . "\n";

if ($myError != '') {
print $myError;
}

$separator = '</td><td>';
$emptycell = '<td></td>';
if ($label_pos == '1') {
$separator = '<br/>';
$emptycell = '';
}

print '<table>';

// print anti-spam
if ($enable_anti_spam) {
if ($anti_spam_position == 0) {
print '<tr><td colspan="2">' . $myAntiSpamQuestion . '</td></tr><tr>'.$emptycell.'<td><input class="rapid_contact inputbox ' . $mod_class_suffix . '" type="text" name="rp_anti_spam_answer" size="' . $emailWidth . '" value="'.$CORRECT_ANTISPAM_ANSWER.'"/></td></tr>' . "\n";
}
}
// print name input
print '<tr><td>' . $myNameLabel . $separator . '<input class="rapid_contact inputbox ' . $mod_class_suffix . '" type="text" name="rp_name" size="' . $nameWidth . '" value="'.$CORRECT_NAME.'"/></td></tr>' . "\n";
// print email input

And then I modified xml as following:

Thank you in advance. I know it is complex.
