Call an "outside" extension like Joomla Contact

doromi 29 Jun, 2018
Hi,

I'm using the Joomla extension Contact to get nice contact information on my pages.
I can add these contacts to content pages or categories by entering {contact contactperson}.

Now I would like to use this extension in my forms and connectivities as well.
But I have no idea how - if I enter the code in a function, be it Custom code or PHP, and call it in an event,
then I only see the text {contact contactperson}, but not the contact information behind it.

Any idea which tool in Chronoconnectivity I should use to call an "outside" extension?
(And does that perhaps work in Chronoforms as well?)

Thanks in advance,

Doris

Hi Doris,

If you are using CFv5 there is a Joomla Plugins action that you can add to a form event. I don't think that there is an equivalent for CFv6 or for ChronoConnectivity??

Hi Bob,

thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately you are right - there is no Joomla Plugin action in CFv6 or CCv6...
