<div dir="ltr">How about a contact page that presents the contact information that is saved in theme options ? You know address, email, phone and google map for location.<br>I know bundling plugins with theme is prohibited. But i guess it's okay to recommend "if you install contact 7 form plugin it will appear on the contact page" ?<br>

<div dir="ltr">Custom page templates are not inherently allowed or prohibited; it depends on the purpose of the custom page template. A custom page template that includes only *presentation* of user content (such as a featured content page template, an "archives" layout, etc.) is fine. Contact forms are Plugin territory, since they are functional, rather than presentational.</div>

<br></div>So, are page templates allowed in wp themes dir, i mean like a contact page, page-contact.php which would show contact info from theme options like address, email, phone etc. A google map, and maybe a contact 7 form (not builtin of course-recommended).<br>
