J-BusinessDirectory - Add custom fields to "contact business" form

I want to add some extra fields to the contact business form such as phone #, best time to reach you, and a couple other things.  I would like to know the proper directory in order to alter the code for this form.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

You would need to modify the contact form in the views/companies/tmpl/listing_utils.php, modify the email template and also add the new fields on the database.

Thanks for the reply!

I was in the right directory, but I don't think of would of thought to look in that file.

I was able to get the form modified and get new fields in the correct database table, but I'm having an issue finding where the data is being sent to for the email template. I did find the EmailService class, but I'm confused with where it's grabbing the template from. Also, the action on the form goes to JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_jbusinessdirectory'). Where is the data actually getting parsed at?

I really appreciate the help!

Hello,

Ok, I didn't realize that the email templates were configurable on the backend, so that's awesome.  The two things I need to know, however.  First is, what are the correct placeholders to use in the email templates?  It doesn't appear to be any of the names in the form, so how are those placeholders generated? Second is where is the data sent to after that form submission so I can get the data from the new new form fields to go into the database.

Thanks!
