Hi,

I am new to wordpress... I am trying to get a contact page going (I know there are plugin's /templates) I wanted to role my own to learn but I didn't see it to be a big pain. I have tried to just to the obvious and set a link in header.php to a PHP page I created. Had a problem finding the correct path. When I did get it to find the page my PHP code new nothing of Wordpress. I wanted to wrap my content with get_header() get_footer(). Anyway I said all that to ask this, what the best way to add forms on to wordpress?

best,

Sounds like you want to create a custom page template, and then create a "Contact" page and select the template from the pop up selector in your write panel..

an example...


<?php
/*
Template Name: Contact
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>

// place your content here

<?php get_sidebar(); ?> // if you need a sidebar on this page

<?php get_footer(); ?>
