    figured it out!

    Care to share how you did it?

    I have a classified site, with the private messaging in the system,
    I want to replace the default contact form (which emails the ad owner) and replace it with a pm message.

    thanks

    I was able to create a Contact Button by using the following code:

    <? 
    
    $name = get_the_author(); // I used Author since I wanted the Author of the post to be contacted.
    
    $title = 'Title / Subject';
    $message = 'Default message goes here (placement text)';
    
    echo '<a href="/?fepaction=newmessage&to='.$name.'&message_title='.$title.'&message_content='.$message.'">Contact Author</a>';
    
    ?>

    If you used HTML you’d have to enter all the info manually.
    I have run into a problem when contacting some usernames with Spaces between them though so if anyone knows a way around that I’d definitely be interested in knowing.

    Thanks for that!.

    If anyone have a fix to the error that shows with spaces in the username, please share, I have tried to fix it with no success.
    Thanks.

    Try putting rawurlencode($name);

    in the echo and it should add %20 where spaces are.
