there group i want to only access this is:

usergroupid=2

could anyone help me please ?

thanks for your time - great hack.

Sure, but this means guests cannot contact you using the form.

Open contact.php.

Find:

PHP Code:

require('./global.php'); 


Add BELOW:

PHP Code:

if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] !=2 AND $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] !=6 AND $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] !=5) {
eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate("error_nocontact")."\");");
exit;
} 


Make sure you add the usergroupid's of your staff usergroups in there too so they can use the form.

The make a new template called:

error_nocontact

Add this as contents:

You have no permission to access the contact form.

Or whatever you want.

Done.
