Installation:
=============

1. In your site/modules/ directory:
a. Install* FormTemplateProcessorMailer.module
b. If using PHPMailer, navigate to the modules/FormTemplateProcessorMailer directory in a terminal and issue:
$ git clone https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer.git PHPMailer
(assumes you have git installed)

* 1. Login into ProcessWire admin > Modules.
2. Click "Check for new modules".
3. Click "install" next to the new <module-name>.

2. For the demo, copy all of the files in demo_files/ to appropriate locations
3. Follow the Usage notes here.

Usage:
======

1. In admin, create the fields you want to be part of the form.
Our /contact/ demo requires:
-subject (the demo uses a hidden input but you can also set during runtime module config)
-sender_name [required]
-email [required] (a built-in field under admin > setup > fields > filters)
-message [required]
-phone
Additionally, all of these fields are tagged with contactForm - See demo_files/screenshots/.
2. Create a new template and assign these fields. Note that a physical template file is not needed here.
3. If you will be using a static contact page, choose or create a separate template that will hold the form widget.
4. And then add a page for this template. The demo uses a page called /contact/. See demo_fields/contact.php
for example usage of the contact page.
5. Adjust the settings eg toName and toAddress in contact-form.php and contact.php, and follow the notes
at the bottom of contact.php
