   Hi Eric,

   With everything I’m capable of in web dev, I’m still a simpleton apparently.

   After searching all the “contact form” options out there for WP, I liked yours the best. But I can’t seem to grasp where to put the code you provide in the installation example. I call ‘em “blind spots” — where I can’t see the forest for the trees (whatever the hell THAT means - but you get my convoluted drift). Can you be more specific for this dummy?

   Thanx in advance,

   deej

   @deej - hello! I’m glad you like the plugin. After you’ve uploaded the plugin, activated and configured it, you need to then update your theme.

   If you already have a “contact” link somewhere, like in sidebar.php, all you need to do is add class="smcf_link" to it.

   If you want SMCF to generate the link for you, add something like the following:

   <?php if (function_exists('smcf')) : ?>
     <?php smcf(); ?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   Hopefully that helps some…if not, let me know.

   Eric,

   I put the code in the sidebar as you suggest. All that happens when clicked is the screen darkens gets stuck like that until I reload the page. What am I missing?

   Hi Eric,
   Could you take a look at my blog; when the contact form loads it is a little out of whack, not sure why, please help (it sends email fine though).
   Thanks,

   Pat

   @Pat - You have another content class defined and it is causing the issues you are seeing. To fix it, just edit the css/smcf.css file:

   #contactModalContainer .content {background:#333; color:#ddd; height:260px; float:none; width:420px;}
