Conceptually How Would You Implement Free versus Paid Customers? - El Forum - 11-07-2011
[eluser]TerryT[/eluser]
To learn Codeigniter, I am writing a small web app. Conceptually how would you handle Free Customer who for example can open 1 project and have 5 users versus Silver Customer who can open up to 5 projects at anyone time and have 15 users, etc?
1. Would you set up a separate table with the authorization?
2. Would you load this info into their session when they register or log in and check against each time they try to add a project or user or would you just query the table?
I am looking for how you would approach this problem. I am currently using Ion Auth for authorization if it makes a difference.
Thanks for any insight.
