Contact Form Installation

This tutorial explains how to install the Contact Form App into a newly installed UM >= 7.51.1.

Install Contact Form App

You can either

A) download App package from the download page and install it manually
B) or – if you are a developer – use UM Kickstarter

Either way you’ll need a license that covers de.pinuts.contactform to successfully install and use the Login App. Please contact support@pinuts.de when in doubt.

A) Install manually

If you need to install into an already existing UM you probably need to perform a manual installation as described in this section.

Go to https://www.universal-messenger.de/knowledge-base/downloads and download the Contact Form App package (ZIP file).

Unzip the file right into your UM folder (where subfolders like cmsbs-conf/ and cmsbs-work/ live):

cd UM
unzip $DOWNLOAD_DIR/ContactForm2-x.y.z.zip

Restart your UM instance.

B) Install using UM Kickstarter

Start a new Kickstarter project

If not done jet, install the Kickstarter project.
Create a new UM project and navigate into it via:
umkickstarter um cd um

Add Contact Form as dependensy

Edit build.gradle to add ContactForm:

dependencies {
    // ...
    runtime('de.pinuts.cmsbs:ContactForm2:4.2.7')
}

Create configuration files

Create a new file cmsbs-conf/conf.d/cf.attributes:

Configure and install REST Proxy

Follow https://downloads.universal-messenger.de/knowledge-base/documentation/universal-messenger/html/UM_EN/Administration/REST-proxy.html to install and configure your REST-Proxy.

Add the following endpoints to your REST-Proxy’s controller whitelist:

de.pinuts.cmsbs.lib.widget.Pi
de.pinuts.cmsbs.contactform2.Widget
