Hello,
I have added an extra field to the form but its not working correctly. I have updated both template_contact.php and send.php. Basically all fields by default are required (red box highlights around field when you select send without filling in any details). Issue: When I select send without filling any details only 3 (original fields) out of the 4 fields are highlighted. If I fill only the highlighted fields and select send the contact form disappears and no mail is received. If I fill in all 4 fields and select send the thank you message appears and mail is received. Somehow I need to activate the 4th required field.
I have pasted both the updated template_contact.php and send.php files below. The new field is titled 'company' / 'the_company'.
template_contact.php
<?php
/*
Template Name: Contact Form
*/
global $k_options;
$name_of_your_site = get_option('blogname');
$email_adress_reciever = $k_options['contact']['contact_mail'] != "" ? $k_options['contact']['contact_mail'] : get_option('admin_email');
if(isset($_POST['Send']))
{
include('send.php');
}
get_header(); ?>

Create a new thread and tell me what problems you are encountering and what you want to know. 
There is no step 3 :)
