You can fixed it by moving the contact template form into the element so that it will be available in any pages.
inside element in the contact folder, form below must be present
<legend><?= __('Our Form') ?></legend>
<fieldset>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('name');
echo $this->Form->input('email');
echo $this->Form->input('body');
?>
</fieldset>
<?= $this->Form->button(__('Submit')) ?>
<?= $this->Form->end(); ?>
then in your pages
you can just call
<?php
echo $this->element('contact/index');
?>
assuming you created index.ctp inside contact folder in element
Hope it solved your problem.
