How to change contact page

**GK User** Sun Mar 15, 2015 12:44 pm

Hi,

how I can change e-mail address and social icon links in contact page of Quark template? I used it here http://www.directive.cz/kontakt/.

Thank you.

Hi,

Please go to Appearance -> Cutomize section, then navigate to your contact page and at the bottom of Theme Customizer settings, you should see Contact Page section with options to change social links, email address etc.

Thanks, but there is no Contact page in the bottom. Or am I wrong? I am sending screenshot.

This contact page is set as your frontpage? So probably it's conflict with conditions, could you set another page as your frontpage for a moment and then check again?

or could you send me a PM with backend access to your website? Then I'll be able to check the issue.

No, I just clicked on Contact page from menu. I am sending screen shot of Front page.

**GK User** Mon Mar 16, 2015 3:19 pm

Did you change any theme files? because by default the section frontpage (last from your screenshot) should be visible only on the frontpage, similar with the "contact page section" - it's visible only on page(s) where template contact is used.

Could you send me backend and FTP access to your website? Then I'll be able to help.

I did not change anything. I just created child theme and instal some plugins. I am going send you FTP in private message.

Hi,

@Sthakur, which browser are you using? Because I've checked the website from Tomas and don't see any problem with editing the contact page.

**GK User** Tue Mar 17, 2015 5:04 pm

Hi,

I am using Safari. Could you put screen shot or write me, where I can find it?

Thank you.

Hi Piotr, I'm using both Firefox & Chrome. Both screenshots have been included for you. As you can see, there is no option for Contacts under Frontpage. Thanks for your help.

Did you read my first answer in this thread? You have to navigate to your Contact page to display Contact Page section instead of Frontpage. Please check the attached screenshot.

Hi,

I understand now....I can see Contact page option only if is Contact page set up like home page. It is working.

Thank you.

Not exactly (you don't have to set your contact page as a frontpage), this features were added to avoid too much options visible at the same time. So, if you are on the frontapge, frontpage sections and options are visible, when you navigate to your contact page, instead of frontpage, you can see contact page section with option to configure contact page which is currently browsing.

Ok, thank you very much.

**GK User** Wed Mar 18, 2015 9:08 am

Ok got it. Thank you and that's very clever way of changing page content.

**GK User** Wed Mar 25, 2015 4:14 pm

Is there a way to have the links open in a new window? For social media and maps? Thanks!

**GK User** Thu Mar 26, 2015 8:49 am

Yes, but you have to edit theme files; Quark/template.contact.php i.e. for the fb link change fragment (around line 178)

Code: Select all: <?php if(get_theme_mod('quark_contact_fb','#') != '') : ?><a href="<?php echo get_theme_mod('quark_contact_fb','#');?>"><i class="gkicon-fb"></i></a><?php endif ;?>

into:

Code: Select all: <?php if(get_theme_mod('quark_contact_fb','#') != '') : ?><a href="<?php echo get_theme_mod('quark_contact_fb','#');?>" target="_blank"><i class="gkicon-fb"></i></a><?php endif ;?>

and similar for other links (add target="_blank" attribute).

Hola,
This is totaly not user friendly, i was reading+trying for 1/2 hour to find out what you meand!

So what i did:
1) went to customizer (no contact page link)
2) Went to 'select static page' option in the customizer
3) Selected my contact page (with the 'contact template') and go back (via arrow) to the customizer
4) The link 'Contact page' now suddenly appeared under the link frontpage in the customizer
5) select link 'contact page' and there you see the options

Sorry, but this is totally not friendly! So please can you change this in the next version!
so we can see al the options immidiately!!

Hi,

Sorry, but it is user friendly.
There's no need to select your contact page as a static frontpage. You can go to Customizer, navigate to your contact page (make the contact form visible in Customizer) and that's all - Contact Page panel should be visible on the left column.

There's no need to see Contact Page options if you are not currently on the Contact page, the same situation is with the frontapge options - are visible only when you are browsing frontpage in the Customizer.
