The Article Contact Pro module is an advanced contact form for Joomla that automatically uses the current article title as the email subject. It supports file upload, Ajax submission, and built-in anti-spam protection, making it a powerful and flexible contact tool for any Joomla site.

Module Options

Basic Settings

Recipient Email

The email address where all form submissions will be sent.
If empty, Joomla’s default “mailfrom” is used.

This ensures the module only shows where the “article title subject” makes sense.

File Upload Settings

Enable File Upload

Allows users to upload a file along with their message.

Yes / No

Max File Size (MB)

Maximum allowed upload size (e.g., 2 MB).

Uploads with extensions not on this list are rejected.

Ajax Settings

Both Ajax and non-Ajax modes show the same success/error alert box.
