Configuring The Contact Form Module In Drupal

Drupal has a built in contact form module.

Activate The Module!


Browse to Administer / Site Building / Modules in your site and activate the Contact and Contact Forms module. Save the configuration and you’re ready to go.

Configure The Contact Form


Browse to Administer / Site Building / Contact Form to begin. Click the link at the top of the page to Add Category.




1. Give the category name. I have used Contact Us.

2. Configure recipients. You can put a single email address or multiple email address separated by comma(,).

You can configure the contact us from from the setting options. This page also allows you to set maximum messages per hour – an anti-spam setting that prevents you getting bombarded with contact form spam! You can also allow members to have a personal contact form which relays emails to the address they have in their profile.

Integrating Into Site Navigation


The path of the contact form is yoursite.com/contact. You can link this page from Administer / Site Building / Menus.

I think there is a misunderstanding.
"Drupal has a built in contact form module. Just you have to download it from http://drupal.org/project/contact_forms . "

You do not need to download a module to use the built in contact form that comes with drupal.

The one you suggest to download, is a nice option though...
