Is it possible to embed a contact list inside an article?

I have a need to show 2 contact lists on the same page separated by some text.

Thanks
John

You have to experiment a bit...

Review of the document http://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_put_a_module_inside_an_article%3F would provide you with information about how to embed a module within an article.

Also, you could explore the possibility of using the extension Modulix Component to Module (http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/core-enhancements/coding-a-scripts-integration/embed-a-include/18121) to show the Contact List within this module.

Probably the first order of business should be to show the contact list in a module. Try to use the extension/module "Modulix Component to Module" for this. Suggest going through the documentation of the extension for this.

Once you have succeeded, you could explore the possibility of showing this module in an article.
