@Johnnie

I am guessing that you are using the RSForm!Pro System plugin and not the one for content. Please try this one instead and see how it goes.

If you are having further difficulties with this, please submit a support request.

google recaptcha v.2 doesnt work

I have installed nocaptcha recaptcha v.2 from google in my contact form and it shows without problem on my main contact form page: http://www.gulet.hr/contact-us.html tough, I can not see it in my Contact tab that uses the plugin syntax? is there a way around it?
any other boat/Gulet uses the plugin with the same form on each page:
for example http://www.gulet.hr/gulets-for-charter/gulet-linda.html the send enguiry uses the tab with the contact form but the recaptcha plugin isnt working there?

Yes, of course. In your case simply use a hidden field and some PHP code to extract the value from the database.

Pick up website title after submitting

I am using this plugin for the first time now. Is there a way for example that the plugin picks up the title of the article somehow?

for example if someone sends and enquiry from this subpage: http://www.magnumadria.com/croatia/gulet-queen-of-adriatic.html
the tab "charter enquiry" is using this plugin in a K2 item/article. If it is possible, this way we would know in what boat the client is interested for and how and from which page the enquiry is has been sent?
is that possible?

Good post as ever. Using a form to get information out of someone is essential, and fortunately, this is now possible to add them in Joomla

I didn't realize you could imbed a form in an article! RSForm is so easy to use, you don't need the documentation but then you miss out on all the additional things this great Joomla component/module can do.
