Contact Form using Logged in information

Hi all

Looking even better every day I come here!

Just a quick question. I want to have a section on my site using a contact form that sends information to my email address. At the moment, I have it set up just using Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress. The problem is that this contact form requires the user to enter their name / email address etc and then send the form. Is there any way that I can just have a text area for contact text, and then the email is sent using the information of the person that is logged in?

Simply, when a user is logged in, they can type a title of their question, and then the text. I then receive an email saying, “User1 (email address) has asked a question!”.

Hope that makes sense.

Adam

I have achieved something similar…

I added a report a member/contact link

which takes them to a custom page template that gathers all their information:

– username

– name

– email

etc

this information then gets placed in hidden input fields… when they submit the contact form, I get their message and all their information (they dont even know I get their name, email etc)

I am not using a wp plugin for the contact form, just some php

that is one way of doing it
