Hi sejje and welcome to the CI forums.

For instance, perhaps there is an image or blog post displayed with a title and caption. Admin-level users will have an option displayed to edit the title/caption, and perhaps delete the entire image/post. Regular users will have the image, title and caption displayed, but without an option to edit them.

This seems to be a fairly commonly perceived Best Practice way of doing things.

Obviously
some logic will need to be in your view - as it was in your legacy system.
The distinction is whether it's business logic or display logic - as the latter is considered kosher for view use. The trick is to pass a variable to your view that denotes whether the admin functions are visible or not - the variable is determined and set by controller, of course.
