I have been checking out both links but I am still not sure if that is what I need. Because I don't really want to be responsible for creating the forms for each author. The best would be if they could do that on their own. But one question that might solve my problem:</p> <p>In the admin panel under "Your profil" each author is able to write some information down. Currently only the biographical info is visible to the visitors when they click on the authors name above the article. Is there any way to make the contact information visible too (or let the author choose whether to publish it or not?) </p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/244754#post-989257 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:32:39 +0000 grandslambert 989257@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>This is why I suggested cforms-plugin - though for some reason it is no longer in the official repository. I use it on may sites and it allows me to create (or copy) forms and embed a given form into a page using the page or post editor. Not hard to do once you understand the plugin and name the forms with something that makes sense. :) </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/244754#post-989189 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 19:53:22 +0000 MichaelH 989189@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Looks like with <a href="http://www.dagondesign.com/articles/secure-form-mailer-plugin-for-wordpress" rel="nofollow">http://www.dagondesign.com/articles/secure-form-mailer-plugin-for-wordpress</a> you can create multiple instances of a contact form. The hard part looks to be correlating your author to the proper form instance.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php global $ddfm; echo $ddfm{1}-&gt;generate_data(); ?&gt;</code></pre> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/244754#post-989176 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 19:41:25 +0000 grandslambert 989176@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I would suggest the cForms plugin - <a href="http://www.deliciousdays.com/cforms-plugin" rel="nofollow">http://www.deliciousdays.com/cforms-plugin</a></p> <p>You can use this to create a custom contact form for each author, even with different fields per author, then create a page in WordPress for their "bio" and embed that contact form on the page. You can even store emails to authors in the databse, but doesn't sound like you want to do that. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/244754#post-989127 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 19:10:54 +0000 do77 989127@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi there, </p> <p>I am allowing multiple authors to post articles on my blog. But unfortunately, if users have a specific question to some article, they use the regular contact form and send their request to me. I have then to figure out which author they mean and forward the message to him/her. As you can see, its a really complicated process. </p> <p>I was wondering if there is a plugin that allows each author to have his/her own page (not a blog or wordpress mu) with only a little bio and a contact form. So basically under each article there would be a link that brings the user to this "contact page". </p> <p>I would appreciate your help! Thanks!! </p>
