Hi,

Plugins, like the Contact plugin, can be integrated unlimited times into the same or different articles. You don't have to re-install the plugin. So create an other article, name it what ever you want, and integrate there the contact plugin.

Use the code below to integrate the plugin into the editor area or use the Elxis guided input method.

{contact}something@example.com{/contact}

On a contact form the comment field should always be required. What's the meaning of having a contact form without requiring the guest to write you a message?

Thanks for answer!

I need new one for "add your hotel" submission, with custom fields only: Name, Name of hotel, Location, mail and phone, so no need for comment field!
Is that possible?

Best regards,

You need a custom version of the Contact plugin for that.
I am thinking of implementing a hotelier registration application FORM + hotel submission on IOSR Hotels 2.0. Can you wait for v2?

Great news!  :)
What is your plan for publishing v2.0?
