Hello!
I'd like to add some additional fields in contact form (e.g. Reason of sending the message etc.). I know how to do it in contact template, but while sending it only gives default fields' content, without that new. I don't have a big knowledge about PHP, so is there anybody who can edit contact.php file properly?
contact.php's content:

Is there anyone who can help me?

After you add inputs to the template, you can read them with $mybb->get_input('inputname') where inputname is the name attribute of the input. Then either concantenate the result to $message:

$message = $lang->sprintf($lang->email_contact, $mybb->input['email'], $user, $session->ipaddress, $mybb->input['message']).$mybb->get_input('inputname');

or add it as another sprintf() parameter and edit the $lang->email_contact language string.

Thanks a lot for your help!

How do I add fields to the contact form only visable to guests?
