Contact Us Essentials. Send contact emails to different recipients and/or threads 2.3.8

Enhanced Contact Form for XenForo​

This powerful addon expands the default XenForo contact form with essential new features, allowing site visitors to send messages to specific teams or departments. It enables:

• Sending contact form emails to predefined groups of recipients.
• Optionally creating a new thread in a designated forum, ensuring messages are posted to, for example, admin or moderators.
• Additional customisable contact form fields to capture relevant information.

Key Features​

At the core of this addon is the Recipient Groups system. Each group represents a team or department (e.g., Forum Admin, Site Feedback, Advertising Team) and appears as a selectable option in the contact form. Admins can:

• Define recipient email addresses.
• Automatically create a new thread in a specific forum containing the sender’s details and message content.

This addon streamlines communication, ensuring messages reach the right people efficiently while providing an organised way to track and manage enquiries.

List the recipient groups. You can have several recipient groups and their order is determined by the Display Order value. In the screenshot below, we can see the recipient groups set up for AVForums.



Then add your recipient group and enter the recipient group details.



You may also choose to create a thread in a chosen forum. In the example above, you can see that a thread will be created in the Moderators' Private Forum.

You may also create custom fields in the form for any extra piece of information you may need. Use the Custom contact fields option in the admin menu (shown above).
