============================================================

To set up a contact form page, a new page of this "ContactForm" type will be created, and (typically) a "Thank You" landing page (of regular HTML type) will be created as a child of the contact form page.

After creating, the following Properties need to be set on the contact form page (in Admin):

	Security:
		Everyone role: "Add Items" must be checked; only other item checked should be "View"

	Form Submit:
		Redirect After Submit:
			"Redirect to" should be selected, and URL should be the "Thank You" page that is also set up
		Page's Default View:
			"Show the form by default" should be selected
		Email New Items: Optional, but typically set up to notify an admin of new contact form entries.
			"send Email" should be checked
			"From" Typically select the existing "EmailAddress" field (may also use custom)
			"To" Typically enter the email address for the recipient of the email notification
			"Subject" Enter a custom email subject
			"Body" Check the "Insert Item Skin after Body" to use the Item Page Skin (defined above) in the body of the email
