Output from contact form becomes %s

Post by harry1 » Sat Jul 02, 2022 8:42 pm

Hello,
In my Joomla 4.1 website the standard contact form does not send me the text input given by a user. In my mail the given contact form input will only tell me: 'Dit is een e-mailbericht via %s van:' (in English: This is an e-mail message via %s from:'. There's no additional text in the mail.
What should I do to get the full user input?
(In my other similar websites the contact forms does send me the given user input)
Thanks for your help!

Are you using a different template than the sites that are working?

This may help: viewtopic.php?f=808&t=991093 (even though the discussion relates to the Italian language pack). It may be an issue with the German language pack. ???

Hi,
Yes, indeed, the langague Dutch in my backend was different than my Joomla-version, and therefore English was displayed in my backend. I succeeded in updating the Dutch langage pack, and now it works again.
Thank you for your help!

Sorry, ik had moeten zien dat je Nederlands gebruikte.

Glad that you found the cause and the solution. :)
