the model class is has follows

Code:
function getusergroup()

    {

$query = $this->db->select('usergroup');

$this->db->from('users');

$array = array('username' =>$this->input->post('username'), 'password' => md5($this->input->post('password')));

$this->db->like($array);

$ret['usergroup'] = $query->get()->result();

return $ret;

    }

The controller class is has follows

Code:
function check()

{

  $admin = $this->session->userdata('usergroup') == 'Systems Administrator';

  $staff = $this->session->userdata('usergroup') == 'staff';

  $client = $this->session->userdata('usergroup') == 'client';

  if(isset($admin))

  {

 $this->load->view('admin/home');

 return true;

  }

  else if(isset($staff))

  {

 $this->load->view('public/home');

    return true;

  }

 else if(isset($client))

  {

 $this->load->view('public/home');

  return true;

  }

  else if($this->session->userdata('usergroup') == '')

  {

   $this->load->view('public/home');

   return true;

  }

  else

  {

  return false;

  }

}

I call the check function after the users have logged in

Code:
if($query) 

{

    $usergroup = $this->Welcome_model->getusergroup();

    $group = $usergroup['usergroup'];

    //load userdata to database//

    $data = array(

    'username' => $this->input->post('username'),

    'usergroup'=>$group,

    'is_logged_in' => true

    );

    $this->session->set_userdata($data);

    $this->check();

    }
