In strings file I see User Types Guest, Member and Staff. It seems to me only Staff is fully implemented. I'd like non staff users to be restricted so they can only view the contacts (i.e. cannot modify or delete them).

You pointed someone to http://www.phpkobo.com/article--m2756. I am afraid the suggestions there are not really helping. It is true that if I follow the instructions there, a cannot modify and/or delete anything, but the buttons to do it are still there and trying to use them sends you to an empty page. This is hardly an acceptable solution, I think.

Can you give me some pointers how to go about it?

Hi Lado,

>It is true that if I follow the instructions there, a cannot modify and/or delete anything, but the buttons to do it are still there and trying to use them sends you to an empty page.

The article is for disable the backend code (, which is the most important thing! ) After that, you need to remove buttons from the template (web/tpl.(table-name).search.inc.php) manually.
