Quynh Nguyen	Wednesday 25 February 2009 6:22:13 pm Thanks for your comment! I read this article and I think that it is not easy to modify the feedback_form, although most of us think that it is easy. - modify class is easy... and maybe install more datatype to create the select control. - add more recipient emails for each value in the select control, maybe in *.ini or in the class definition. - override template to show more control after modify the feedback_form class. - extends class php to check the selected value from select control and set approximately recipient email to receive collected information. But I don't know how to tell eZ Publish will use new class to process the $_POST data. Am I right? Who had done it? Please show more detail for newbies and me to follow!

I read this article and I think that it is not easy to modify the feedback_form, although most of us think that it is easy.

- modify class is easy... and maybe install more datatype to create the select control.
- add more recipient emails for each value in the select control, maybe in *.ini or in the class definition.
- override template to show more control after modify the feedback_form class.
- extends class php to check the selected value from select control and set approximately recipient email to receive collected information. But I don't know how to tell eZ Publish will use new class to process the $_POST data.

Am I right? Who had done it? Please show more detail for newbies and me to follow!
