Have you included the file msgform.disp.php ?

BTW, I deleted your duplicate post on this topic.

Yes I've got the msgform file, in both /skins and in skins/myskin.

Thanks for deleting the duplicate - my connection kicked out just as I was posting.

Ok...
Have you included masgform.disp in the index.main.php file for that skin...
eg:

<?php
		// -------------- MAIN CONTENT TEMPLATE INCLUDED HERE (Based on $disp) --------------
		skin_include( '$disp$', array(
				'disp_posts'  => '',		// We already handled this case above
				'disp_single' => '',		// We already handled this case above
				'disp_page'   => '',		// We already handled this case above
				'disp_msgform'			=> '_msgform.disp.php',
				'disp_plugins'			=> '_plugins.disp.php',
			) );
		// Note: you can customize any of the sub templates included here by
		// copying the matching php file into your skin directory.
		// ------------------------- END OF MAIN CONTENT TEMPLATE ---------------------------
	?>

Ah.... no! I was thinking that I needed something like that but I couldn't figure it out.

Thanks John!

Ok, I've added that in and am still getting nothing.

This "old" post is in the FAQ
It might twig something for you that's been left out.

shoot.. can you pass an exact link of your blog contact form that is problematic ..

and btw are you sure that you ve added 'disp_msgform' => '_msgform.disp.php',
and included _msgform.disp.php in your /yourskin folder

I'm using a contact form menu link widget, which is what is creating the url - I simply copied and pasted it (see first post) above.

As mentioned above, yes, the skin now has the disp_msgform code, and msgform.disp is in both /skins and in skins/myskin.

Funnily enough, the Announcements page is on a different skin, doesn't have the disp_msgform code in the skin, but that works fine. So I just copied over the second skin and now it works... have no idea what the difference was.

Anyway, thanks, seems I've solved it...

I just ran into this problem w/ a new skin I wrote for b2evo 2.4.5. You need these lines to display the contact form

	<?php
				// -------------- MAIN CONTENT TEMPLATE INCLUDED HERE (Based on $disp) --------------
				//skin_include( '$disp$', array() );
				skin_include( '$disp$', array(
					'disp_posts'  => '',            // We already handled this case above
					'disp_single' => '',            // We already handled this case above
					'disp_page'   => '',            // We already handled this case above
                       ) );
				// Note: you can customize any of the sub templates included here by
				// copying the matching php file into your skin directory.
				// ------------------------- END OF MAIN CONTENT TEMPLATE ---------------------------
