==Description== <!--T:9-->

<!--T:10-->
Contacts allow you to list people and their personal information on your web site, not necessarily registered users. You may also allow anyone, or just registered users, to send e-mails to those people. The Edit Form is where you add a new Contact or edit an existing Contact.

<!--T:125-->
'''Be aware:''' If a contact has a menu item then the Contact Menu Settings override some settings available here. Be careful not to disclose personal information by mistake!

===Edit Contact=== <!--T:15-->

<!--T:16-->
Here you enter the basic information about the contact.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:19--> '''Linked User.''' Select the User, if any, that this Contact is linked to from the drop-down list box. This allows you to link this Contact's information to a registered Joomla! User. If this Contact is not linked to a User, select "-No User-".</translate>
*<translate><!--T:20--> '''Image.''' Image to display for this Contact. Select an image file from the drop-down list box. This lists images in the 'images/stories' folder. Images can be uploaded using the [[Help40:Media/en|Media Manager]].</translate>
*<translate><!--T:21--> '''Position:''' The Contact's current position.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:22--> '''E-mail.''' The Contact's e-mail address. Note that e-mail addresses in Joomla! can be protected from "spambots" by enabling "Content-Email Cloaking" in the [[Help40:Plugins/en|Plug-in Manager]]. This is enabled by default.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:23--> '''Address.''' The Contact's street address.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:24--> '''City or Suburb.''' The Contact's town or suburb.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:25--> '''State or Province.''' The Contact's state or county.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:26--> '''Postal / ZIP Code.''' The Contact's postal code.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:27--> '''Country.''' The Contact's country.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:28--> '''Telephone.''' The Contact's phone number.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:29--> '''Mobile.''' The Contact's mobile phone number.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:30--> '''Fax.''' The Contact's fax number.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:31--> '''Website.''' The Contact's web site address.</translate>
*<translate><!--T:128--> '''Sort Fields.''' To enable sort fields for Category lists go to the {{rarr|Contacts,Options}} screen and set {{rarr|List Layouts,Sort By}} to '''Sort Name'''. Then you need to use real words for sorting. For example, set First Sort Field to '''Doe''', second field to '''John''' for the first contact; then First Sort Field to '''Doe''', second field to '''Jane''' for the second contact. The third field is not used in this case. The sort fields are character fields so if you want to sort by age you need to enter 0x for ages under 10, so 08 for example.</translate>
**<translate><!--T:32--> '''First Sort Field.''' The name to use as the first sort field.</translate>
**<translate><!--T:33--> '''Second Sort Field.''' The name to use as the second sort field.</translate>
**<translate><!--T:34--> '''Third Sort Field.''' The name to use as the third sort field.</translate>
