Request Quote link enhancement

[pasher]

On the product pages that are 'call for price', there's a Request Quote link that goes to the contact page.
I want it to pass the product ID (or something else that identifies it) to the contact page, and for it to be put in the subject field of the email I receive.
I get too many emails saying just 'Please Quote'.
Thanks

I have never heard of something like this before. Does this feature comes from a particular MOD ? If so, would it be possible to point out the precise URL (clickable download link) on where this might be located ? If so, I could take a look at it.

No, not from a mod at all, its an original ZC function (or lack of it!!). Perhaps I'm not being clear.
If one sets a product as 'Call for Price', in the catalog you get a 'Call for price' link in the appropriate product pages, and that link goes to the contact form.
If there are several 'call for price' products, the potential customer has to specify which product he wants a quote on, which often he doesn't.
I'm asking that the product model data be included in the 'call for price' link and that be automatically embedded into the contact form, either as a subject field, or a hidden field, or whatever.

May be better add to email referring info? So, if you come to "Contact Us" page from products_info page, you can see in email
"Referring page - http://zz.zz/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=XX"

Yeah - that would do it. Any suggestion on how or what to code to achieve this?

If I may ask before posting the actual solution ... wouldn't be the same to use a Report a product feature ?

Dunno - Is this a ZC feature I've not come across yet?
Please point me to it.
Thx

Add referring info to contact us email.

1. tpl_contact_us_default.php
Find ~78 line

<div class="buttonRow back"><?php echo zen_back_link() . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_BACK, BUTTON_BACK_ALT) . '</a>'; ?></div>

Add after

<!-- // BOF Referrer page -->
<?php echo zen_draw_hidden_field('referrer', ($error ? zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['referrer']) : (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']) ? zen_db_prepare_input(urldecode($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) : ''))); ?>
<!-- // EOF Referrer page -->

2. contact_us/header_php.php
Find ~50

$extra_info = email_collect_extra_info($name, $email_address, $customer_name, $customer_email);

Add after

// BOF Referrer page
   define('OFFICE_REFERRER', 'Referrer page:');
   $referrer = zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['referrer']);
   $extra_info['TEXT'] .= OFFICE_REFERRER . "\t" . $referrer . "\n\n";
   $extra_info['HTML'] .= '<table class="extra-info"><tr><td class="extra-info-bold">' . OFFICE_REFERRER . '</td><td>' . $referrer . '</td></tr>' . '</table>';
// EOF Referrer page

Thanks Andrew - Much appreciated.
I tried it on my test site and it works fine.
However, the product can only be identified if they 'Requested a Quote' from the product page. Unfortunately, the link also appears on the Category page against each product, so if requested from there, I still cannot identify the product from this info (assuming there is more than one product).

But its a step in the right direction ;-)
Thanks Again

Must be in the archived section regarding the report a product feature ... if it isn't there no more, I will recode it. In the mean time, I do not think the old one was meant to work on Zen-Cart v1.3x ... I will keep this topic updated when done.
