This package is marked as retired

Contour is no longer actively maintained having been replaced by Umbraco Forms. See https://our.umbraco.com/packages/developer-tools/umbraco-forms/.

Contour

Contour makes creating contact forms, entry forms and questionnaires just as easy as using Word. You won’t need to write a single line of code. Instead, you can create, edit and administer your form via a user interface that is a fully integrated part of Umbraco.
Check out the product page for more details. http://umbraco.com/products/more-add-ons/contour

To Upgrade

Download the UmbracoContour.files.3.0.32.zip and unzip its contents in the root of your website, installation guide is available as a pdf below

Upgrading from 1.x to 3.x

Since there are some schema changes between version 1 and 3 your db will also need to be updated, you can execute the upgrade script by requesting the page mysite.com/umbraco/plugins/umbracocontour/upgrade.aspx after requesting that page your schema will be updated and you'll have a new insert form macro in the developer section.

If that fails you can also run the sql manually, the scripts can be found on the source code tab below
