I am looking for a module which exposes the default global contact from w/category selection as a block.

This module creates an individual form for each category, I would have expected it to also provide the global contact form as a block as well.

Currently I don't have time to implement this. I welcome patches though.

new global_contact_form_as_block-663308-2.patch2.39 KB

I first made changes on the 6.x-1.1 version and performed some successful tests.
But when came the time to create a patch against the DEV version, I noticed that this one was very different from the released one.

So I adapted my changes to fit the DEV version, but I did not performed as many tests as before.
If the DEV version is stable, it could be really great to create a new release...

Thanks for the patch, works well so far.

I don't understand though why contact_form_blocks_get_categories() needs to switch between Global and Contact depending on the parameter $block_info. I rather think it should work this way: Insert the static Global item everytime except when calling the settings page using contact_form_blocks_settings(). Here we only want to have the actual categories displayed.

It also seems to be necessary to insert the static Global item only when categories are available.

Oh sorry this patch is quite old and I do not remember what it did... If I have some time, I will try to have a look on that.

Perhaps this could help, but I've just pushed this feature to 7.x dev version of module.

In can this request is still active I can take a look to 6th version to add this feature.

Hi,
yes please. It would be great if you could add this feature to 6.x dev also!
