It worked for me but after the form is submitted my navigation links have contacts/index inserted between the base URL and the URL Key, presumably because the URL Key is relative. Any idea how fix this? Thanks for this article.

I tried to remove the original link from the footer in my local.xml [code]<action method="removeLinkByUrl"><url>http://www.mysite.com/contacts/</url></action>[/code] but this did not work so I have ended up copying the contacts.xml into my app/theme removing the following section. [code] <default> <reference name="footer_links"> <action method="addLink" translate="label title" module="contacts" ifconfig="contacts/contacts/enabled"><label>Contact Us</label><url>contacts</url><title>Contact Us</title><prepare>true</prepare></action> </reference> </default>[/code] Thank you works a dream in 1.6.

I tried to remove the original link from the footer in my local.xml 

<action method="removeLinkByUrl"><url>http://www.mysite.com/contacts/</url></action>

but this did not work so I have ended up copying the contacts.xml into my app/theme removing the following section.

<default>
        <reference name="footer_links">
            <action method="addLink" translate="label title" module="contacts" ifconfig="contacts/contacts/enabled"><label>Contact Us</label><url>contacts</url><title>Contact Us</title><prepare>true</prepare></action>

But does anyone know how to add it to a multi-store set up? if I add that block to my CMS page that is used by more than one of the other "sub"-stores (eg. www.MyStore.com/store1/) the form just redirects back to the main store. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hi I am trying to add that block type to my CMS and it works great for the main website.

Don't think it is the best way but it should work. When the client is on the t-shirt category show t-shirt message and when on the tobacco one show the tobacco message. Hope it helps. @Christopher have you tried with some custom code on your category page? you could do an if statement based on the category the client is and show some info or hide it.

Keep up the good work! For me your blog is really important and your articles are everything else than ripped off. Some people might think that this is a free support chat, but don't get confused by that ;-) Thumbs up! Best from Berlin, Thilo Dear inchoo team, I like your work, your blog and your tutorials.

For 3 years, we are trying to share knowledge via this site and help community in learning. There are now over 100.000 people who visit this site on monthly basis. However, due this reason, some people feel like sharing knowledge is our obligation. Let me be blunt. It is not. We get cca 5-10 inquiries per day currently to provide free support. Theses inquiries are often sent after someone messed up something. Imagine our workday if we would jump from one side to another trying to help everyone. For free. You don't need to be economy expert to figure out what would happen. Word would be spread and such free-support inquiries would explode. Inchoo couldn't pay salaries for employees and they would leave. Quite soon, we would be out of business because nobody would stay. I am sad you find this blog pointless. It is your opinion and you are entitled to it. However, I can confirm that the articles are not ripped. Thank you! Dear Christopher,

I hope you understand that although we wrote over 500 tutorials / modules / extensions completely free for the community here, we do have obligation to finish work for our clients and feed our families. I hope you don't mind. Kind regards, Marketing Manager, Inchoo Christopher,
